Defaults

1. Order Type

Specify the default document type for the system to assign to requisitions. Enter a valid document type from user-defined code 00/DT.

2. Service Line Type

Specify the default service line type for the system to assign to requisitions. This value specifies how the system processes lines on a transaction and is used only when you enter a requisition for a service. The line type affects the systems with which the transaction interfaces (General Ledger, Job Cost, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, and Inventory Management). The line type also specifies the conditions for including a line on reports and in calculations. The line type specified must have an inventory interface of A or N and the Edit Item Master for Non Stock option must be cleared in the Line Type Constants program (P40205).

3. Product Line Type

Specify the default line type for the system to assign to requisitions. This value specifies how the system processes lines on a transaction and is used only when you enter a requisition for a product. The line type affects the systems with which the transaction interfaces (General Ledger, Job Cost, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, and Inventory Management). The line type also specifies the conditions for including a line on reports and in calculations. If you enter a valid item from the Item Master table, the system uses the default line type from the Item Branch or the Item Master table.

4. Unit of Measure

Specify the default unit of measure for the system to assign to the requisition if you leave the Unit of Measure field blank. If you enter a valid item from the Item Master table on the requisition, the system uses the value that is specified in the Transaction Unit of Measure processing option for the unit of measure.

5. Transaction Unit of Measure

Specify where the system locates transaction unit of measure information to use as the default during requisition entry. Values are:

1: Uses the primary unit of measure from the F4101 table as the default for the transaction unit of measure.

Blank: Uses the purchasing unit of measure from the F4101 table. The transaction unit of measure directly relates to the number that you have entered in the Quantity field on the Requisition Entry form.

6. Account Description

Specify which account description to use as the default for requisitions. Values are:

1: Uses the business unit and the subsidiary (cost code header) as the default account description. Typically, the account is a nonposting header account. The object account is not used when the system retrieves the account description.

Blank: Uses the business unit, object, and subsidiary as the default account description.
