You select options when you create your Inventory Control ledger. Once you have set up your ledger, use this form when you need to change your selections.

This form lets you:

Specify the contact name, telephone number, and fax number for your Inventory Control ledger. (Use the Company tab.)
Select the Multicurrency option and other options that determine how your Inventory Control system operates. (Use the Processing tab.)
Define up to ten item number segments, any number of which you can then combine to define item structures, which are used to format item numbers. (Use the Items tab.)

Note: Sage Accpac 100 allows up to 4 item number segments.

Select separators to be used in item structures. (Use the Items tab.)

Specify the prefix and sequence of all numbers used to identify documents in your system (shipments, receipts, returns, transfers, adjustments, assemblies, and disassemblies).
If you have the Serialized Inventory and Lot Tracking license installed, the Serials and Lots tabs appear allowing you to set options for allocation, expiration and formatting of serial/lot numbers.

Before using the Options form

Before changing any of the settings or other information in the Options form, make sure you understand the impact the options have on processing within Inventory Control.

Note: You cannot change most of your choices in the Options form if other Inventory Control forms are open, or other users are working with the Inventory Control database.

Make sure that no one else is using the Inventory Control data and that no other Inventory Control forms are open for the company before you save changes to the Options form.
