ECO Entry

Cost Code

Enter a subset of an object account. Subsidiary accounts include detailed records of the accounting activity for an object account.

Note: If you are using a flexible chart of accounts and the object account is set to six digits, you must use all six digits. For example, entering 000456 is not the same as entering 456 because, if you enter 456, the system enters three blank spaces to fill a six-digit object.
Parent Work Order

Enter a number that identifies the parent work order. You can use this number to:

  • Enter default values for new work orders, such as Type, Priority, Status, and Manager.

  • Group work orders for project setup and reporting.

Search X-Ref (search cross reference)

Enter an alphanumeric value used as a cross-reference or secondary reference number. Typically, this is the customer number, supplier number, or job number.

W.O. Flash Message (work order flash message)

Enter a UDC (00/WM) that indicates a change in the status of a work order. The system indicates a changed work order with an asterisk in the appropriate report or inquiry form field. The system highlights the flash message in the Description field of the work order.
