Setting Up Owners

Access the Edit Owner Information form.

Owner Short Code

Enter a unique identifier for an owner.

Address Book Number

Enter a number that identifies an entry in the Address Book system that represents an owner. When you have assigned an address book number to an owner master record, you cannot use this address book number for another owner.

If you have already used the address book number in an ownership distribution record (P40G101), you cannot delete the owner master record.

Category Code

Enter a user-defined code (UDC) (31B/OC) to categorize owners.

Identifier

Specify whether the owner is internal or external. This value is used for costing.

Status

Assign a status to the owner. Only active owners can be assigned to lots.

Owner Group

Select a value from the Owner Groups UDC table (31B/OG) to indicate which group an owner belongs to. You assign ownership to owner groups for accounting purposes. The Blend automatic accounting instructions (AAIs) use the owner group to point to an account.
