If you apply charges to work orders using the speed entry code on Time Accounting or Payroll forms, you must set up your system to distribute the charges to the proper object account. You set up these object accounts on the Accounting Rules table.
At a minimum, you must set up an object account for default company 00000. You can set up object accounts for other companies as well. The system always searches for accounting rules by a specific company. If no company is found, the system applies rules according to the default company.
