Custom details
Custom details are non-hierarchical lists of detailed positions for
financial accounts.
Custom details are used with data entry tasks in Budgeting & Planning. Like line details, Custom details provide additional information
about values. The difference from Line details is that Custom details are calculated. Those
calculations are defined in the data model in the form X*Y
.
For example, Unit cost multiplied by Quantity. You connect accounts to custom detail
hierarchies. The same custom details can be connected to multiple accounts.
In Budgeting & Planning you assign each item to an account or asset category. For each item, you specify the unit costs for each period in the configuration set.
