Understanding Outbound Inventory AAIs

Each time you enter a transaction for which the system must create journal entries, the system must locate the appropriate account numbers. It does this by reviewing the AAI tables that correspond to the transaction.

When you enter an internally owned shipment order, the system uses the 4243 and 4240 AAIs.
