The procedure to define a financial posting rule is as follows:
- Navigate to Quick Menu > System > Configuration > Financial Posting. The Financial Posting Map Details window is displayed.
- Click on Definition. The Definition tab is activated.
- Expand a module and linked transaction type from the alphabetical list and select an associated financial posting map definition or type its name into the Search Posting Map Definition field. By default the list is filtered to show Current definitions. An alternative filter can be applied using the Select view drop-down field: Expired, Future or All
1.
- Click on New Rule. The Add Rule Detail window is displayed.
- Using the Select Field drop-down field, choose a transaction entity from the filtered list (e.g. Repair Invoice Contractor, Repair Commitment Works Order Priority).
- Activate the All Values tick box provided to assign all transaction entity values to this financial posting definition rule, or select a single value using the adjacent Select Values drop-down field, as required.
- Click on Save to store the single entry or Save & Add to record additional rules 2. The entries appear as individual rows in the Rules summary table 3.
Note
1 The Search Posting Map Definition field will match against any element of the definition description.
2 Where multiple rules exist for the same transaction entity, the Or expression operator is automatically applied; similarly where multiple rules exist for different transaction entities, the And expression operator is employed. Any combination of rules can be added to obtain the desired subset of transactions in the resulting financial batch.
3 Once added, a financial posting definition rule cannot be edited; instead it must be deleted and re-entered with the new criteria.
