Changing option selections
After setup, you can change your choices for all Processing options, with the following exceptions and restrictions:
-
You can select the Multicurrency and Allow Fractional Quantities options at any time, but cannot turn either option off once you save changes to the Options form.
-
You can change the type of year (fiscal or calendar) and period by which you accumulate item statistics, but you should do so only at fiscal or calendar year end.
If you change either method partway through a year, the statistics already accumulated will be incorrect or in the wrong period.
