  2. Open a finance enterprise group and click the Options tab.
  3. Select the Structure Exceptions check box.
  4. Click Save. The Structure Exception tab is available.

    Select this check box to set the structure exception to active. When this check box is selected, the date range indicates when the finance structure code block is valid.
