Using Speed Account Entry for Journal Entries for Work Orders

When you enter journal entries for work orders, you can use speed account entry to save time and reduce entry errors. In the Account Number field, you enter \ (backslash), the work order number, a period, and the object account number. The system locates the business unit for the work order and:

• Replaces the work order number with the business unit. The object account number remains in the Account Number field.

• Updates the Subledger field with the work order number.

• Updates the Subledger Type field with W.

• Updates the Subsidiary field with the cost code from the work order.

• Updates the Phase field with the phase from the work order.

• Updates the Asset Number field with the equipment number from the work order.
