This chapter contains the topic:
Many fields throughout the JD Edwards World systems accept only user defined codes. When you enter an invoice, for example, you must enter a user defined code to specify its current payment status. The system does not accept values that are not defined in a user defined list.
Each user defined code is either soft-coded or hard-coded. You can customize any soft-coded user defined code to accommodate your specific business needs. You can set up additional codes that are soft-coded as well. You cannot customize a user defined code that is hard-coded.
User defined code types are identified by the system code and the user defined code list. For example, 00/DT represents system 00 and user defined code list DT (document types).
Information about user defined codes is stored in the User Defined Codes table (F0005).
The User Defined Code Revisions form shows the various codes that are assigned to a specific user defined code, such as ledger types (09/LT).
