Divisionalized accounting setup

Complete these setups to use divisionalized accounting:

• SA Company Setup-Required-Settings,

  Select the Divisional option and specify an InterDivisional account code in the GL Accounts section.

• SA Table Code Value Setup-Division

  Define each of your divisions.

• SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders-Entry Settings

  Set the Division # Default From field to either Customer or Warehouse. Use this option to indicate whether the division number should default from the warehouse record or customer record during Sales Order Entry.

  The default is overridden if the Sales Warehouse feature is activated in the Sales Warehouse section:

  • The Use Sales Warehouse option is selected, and
  • The Override Division # Default on the Order option is selected.
• Customer Setup, Customer Ship To Setup, or Product Warehouse Description Setup

  Select a division as appropriate. This selection is based on your division settings in SA Table Code Value Setup-Division and SA Administrator Options.

• SA Operator Setup-Other Options

  Select the options that control division access for your company. This includes selecting allowed divisions for each operator and specifying the module data each operator is restricted to within the allowed divisions, if appropriate. Optionally, specify a division group if you have set up Division Groups in SA Table Code Value Setup-Division Group.

• GL Account Setup

  Divisional accounts must be set up in your chart of accounts for all of your balance sheet accounts.

  Suspense debit and credit accounts must be set up for each division. Each suspense posting will have to be researched and reconciled as part of your daily balancing procedures.

• Product Warehouse Descriptions Setup-Other

  An interdivisional inventory account must be assigned to each warehouse. At the end of each day, the total of all of the interdivisional inventory accounts should be zero. If they are not, they are out of balance and you must research the error.
