Project and Job Costing Options — Segments Tab
You use the Segments tab on the PJC Options form to:
-
Specify a default contract structure to use with new contracts. (You use the Contract Structures form to specify contract structures, or formats for your contract numbers.)
-
Define the segments you will use in your Project and Job Costing contract structures.
You can define up to five segments for your contract numbers. Each segment can be up to 16 characters long. Contract numbers can be a maximum of 5 segments long and no longer than 16 characters.
-
Indicate whether to use a validation table for each segment. (You use the Segment Codes form to specify the valid segment codes that you can use with each segment.)
-
Select the segment separators that can be used in contract numbers. You cannot enter these separators manually when you enter a contract number for a new contract.
