Sales Business (SBS) - Defining Periods and Dates
-
Specify this information:
- Current Period
- The current accounting period to be used for the Sales module. This can also be amended using the Change Period (CPD) function.
-
To restrict the entry period or date on sales transactions you
can use the fields on the System tab to define specific ranges of periods and dates.
Transactions can then only be entered within these ranges. These are referred to
as the open ranges. Leave these fields blank if you do not wish to set these
restrictions.
Uwaga: After these have been set up, they are only updated by amending these fields in the sales business setup.
- Period Open From
- The first period in the range.
- Period Open To
- The last period in the range.
- Date Open From
- The first date in the range.
- Date Open To
- The last date in the range.
Instead of defining specific dates or periods which then have to be maintained, you can ask the system to calculate the open ranges relative to the current date or period. To do this enter a positive or negative number in the following fields. For example, if the Open Period From Relative field is set to -3 and the Open Period To Relative field is set to +3, the open range will be calculated as starting three periods before the current period and ending three periods after the current period. That is, a total of seven periods.
