Setting Up G/L Cost Group Cross-Reference

Access the Edit G/L Category Cost Group Cross Reference form.

G/L Category

A user defined code (41/9) that identifies the G/L offset that system uses when it searches for the account to which it posts the transaction. If you do not want to specify a class code, you can enter **** (four asterisks) in this field.

Cost Group

An alphanumeric code that identifies a set of one or more cost components associated with an operation. For example, a Cost Group can be assigned to equipment, staff, spray items, overheads, or expenses.

When a cross-reference exists, the system uses the cost on the Item Cost table (F4105) rather than the unit cost that is set up in the cost group.

Note: Weigh tags use this cross-reference to fetch cost components to use as defaults on the Weigh Tag details record.
