Default Division for Inventory Transactions (C17)

Purpose: Use this screen to define the division to use when posting inventory transactions to the general ledger.

No posting to the general ledger will take place for warehouse, item or inventory transactions unless you have defined the default division in this field.

Code field: Enter the division to use when posting inventory transactions to the General Ledger.

All inventory transaction codes associated with G/L numbers will post to the General Ledger transaction table as long as you have defined the default division in this field. The system uses the General Ledger number in the transaction code, the division you define for this system control value, the entity defined in the division, and the company code to post the transaction.

Override for warehouse: If the warehouse affected by the inventory transaction has a Division specified, the system uses this division, rather than the default specified with this system control value, to post inventory transactions. See the description of the Division under Creating and Maintaining Warehouses (WWHS) for more information.

Divisions are defined using the Working with Divisions (WDIV) menu option.
