Reference Numbers

Field Description
Ref 1

Enter a reference number that is assigned to reference number 1 or click to select a reference number. The headings entered for Ref 1 on the Configure General Ledger Settings screen display your label for this field. As you move to the next field, Costpoint validates that the reference number entered can be charged. If you have entered an invalid reference number, or a reference number that is not valid for the particular reference number field (for example, you entered a valid reference number 2 in the Ref 1 field), you receive an error and must correct the reference number before continuing. No additional validation occurs when you save.

Note: Reference numbers are not used during the billing calculations.
