Accounts Subtask

Use the Accounts subtask to distribute the purchase order line's charge to a single or multiple Project/Account/Organization combinations.

If you entered Project, Account, Organization and abbreviation information in the Accounting Defaults tab and elected to have the information default for all PO lines, this information defaults into this subtask.

Use this subtask whenever a purchase order line is added to the purchase order, and maintain it when modifications are needed to that purchase order line's account allocation.

If you entered Project, Account, Organization and abbreviation information in the Accounting Defaults tab and elected to have the information default for all PO lines, this information defaults into this table window but can be modified. If this information is not populated in the Accounting Defaults tab, but it exists for the vendor in the Default Expense Accounts subtask on the Manage Vendors screen, the vendor's project, account, and organization information defaults into this table window for the PO line. The project/account/org information must be assigned to the buyer on the Manage Buyers screen.
