Sage ERP Accpac Purchase Orders 6.0

Using Optional Fields

Purchase Orders supports Sage ERP Accpac Transaction Analysis and Optional Field Creator, a separately licensed package that lets you add optional fields to transaction documents (like purchase orders and invoices) and to each detail line of a transaction.

You can only use optional fields if you have Sage ERP Accpac's Transaction Analysis and Optional Field Creator.

You add optional fields to transaction entry forms using the Optional Fields form in the Setup folder.

If you add the same fields to all of the PO translation forms, the optional field information from one form will appear as default entries in the next form in the transaction cycle — from purchase requisitions, to purchase orders, to receipts, to invoices, and even to downstream ledgers like Accounts Payable and General Ledger — as long as you assign the same optional fields to each of the transaction forms and to the general ledger accounts.

You can also change the optional field information in each form, or change which fields appear in each form.
