Product Line Accounting
Product line accounting makes it possible for you to do all of the following:
- Default WIP accounting classes based on product line categories when converting planned orders to execution orders
- Default WIP accounting classes based on product line categories when defining discrete jobs, associating repetitive assemblies and lines, and when performing work order-less completions
- Perform distributions using these default WIP classes and their valuation and variance accounts
- Track work in process and inventory transactions by product line
Implementing Product Line Accounting
To implement product line accounting, you must complete your project line accounting setup then define and implement the Accounting Entry or Account Generation client extension. If you do not implement one or the other of these extensions, the default WIP accounting classes defined in the Category Default WIP Accounting Classes window are used but the accounts defined in the Category Accounts window are not thus your implementation will be incomplete. See: Accounting Entry Extension and Account Generation Extension.
