DEFAULT PROJECT INVENTORY ACCOUNTS

In Costpoint versions prior to 6.0, this screen was named Default WIP Asset Accounts.

Use this screen to establish project inventory accounts and organizations to be used as defaults when setting up new inventory projects. Accounts and their assigned account types, as well as organizations and org abbreviations, are established in Costpoint General Ledger. Account and organization information must be valid and active.

Set up this screen when the system is initialized, before setting up inventory projects, and maintain it whenever you need to change default accounts.
