Enabling Auto-Numbered Amortization Schedules
When you use the Amortization feature, you can choose to automate the numbering of amortization schedules. This enhances your ability to audit deferred and forecasted expenses.
To enable auto-numbering for revenue recognition schedules:
-
Go to Setup > Company > Setup Tasks > Auto-Generated Numbers.
-
Click the Schedules subtab.
-
Check the Enable box next to Amortization Schedule.
-
Enter the appropriate information in each column:
-
Prefix
-
Suffix
-
Minimum Digits
-
Initial Number
-
Current Number
-
When auto-generated numbering is enabled, amortization schedules are listed by number instead of by name on transactions and lists. The name is preserved on each schedule.
After a schedule has been created, the schedule number appears as a link on journal entries related to that schedule. A schedule number link also replaces the View link on transactions that link to the schedule.
