Field | Description |
Department
|
In this field, you select the department that the customer usually deals with. You can specify other departments on item purchase orders and invoices to the customer.
The department selected here determines which G/L accounts are used when you invoice customer transactions. The department is a posting reference to item sales accounts, charge accounts, discount accounts, and so on. The posting references are also used when posting interest and reminder charges, as well as when posting cash discounts and exchange rate differences occurring from open item reconciling.
G/L posting references are maintained in the window Posting References in the G/L module. If the window System Information in the Set-Up module specifies that entries are posted by item group or by activity, the posting references for item sales and cost of sales are retrieved from the Item Group Information Card in the Inventory module and from the window Activities in the Job Cost module respectively.

In this field, you select the language of the customer. The selected language is used, for example, on printouts of item descriptions on sales order documents and in connection with language texts.

Languages are maintained in the pop-up field “Language” in the window Popup Fields in the Set-Up module.

Company Tax Code
|
In this field, you can specify a company tax code created in the window Popup Fields. The field is used by Maconomy for determining the tax code to be used in the calculation of tax for the current customer, as the reporting code is part of the criteria for the selection of a tax code in the window Tax Tables in the G/L module. However, the tax code is only selected from a tax table if the field “Use Tax Tables” is marked in the window System Information and if the company specified as the responsible company for the order or job in question is assigned to a tax table. If no tax table is specified for the responsible company or if you use differentiated tax but you do not use tax tables, Maconomy uses the tax code specified for the account, item or activity, depending on the transaction in question. If you use neither differentiated tax nor tax tables, Maconomy uses the standard tax code specified in the window System Information in the Set-Up module.
If you use tax tables, and the system parameter “Get on account tax code from tax table” is marked, the tax code to be transferred to on account invoices is found in a tax table. But instead of using the item tax code specified on an activity, item or account, Maconomy uses the on account tax code in the field “On Account Tax Code” in the window System Information in the Set-Up module (along with various other information) to point out the relevant tax table line. If the system parameter “Get on account tax code from tax table” is not marked, the standard tax code specified in the window System Information is always used as the tax code on invoices on account. For further information about the information used to point out the correct tax code, please see the description of the window Tax Tables in the G/L module.
When posting entries, the reporting code is used for deter- mining which tax report entries to create. Based on the tax report entries, you can create tax reports showing the tax and tax basis entries assigned to a given tax report field. However, this kind of reporting can only be made if extended tax reporting has been selected in the window System Information.

|
In this field, you can enter the customer’s company registration number if you are dealing with a company. If you have entered company registration number validation rules for the customer’s country in the window Rules of Validation in the Set-Up module, Maconomy will verify that the company registration number complies with these validation rules. The completion of this field is optional.
