Actions - Implementation

Prerequisites

Your system is supplied with a predefined set of "actions" and "transaction types" commonly used by businesses in the distribution and manufacturing sectors. The list of actions or business processes is defined in the 806–Actions miscellaneous table. The list of transaction types is defined in the 807–Transaction type miscellaneous table. Review the lists in these miscellaneous tables. Add to the lists if necessary and deactivate the codes you do not require by clearing the Active checkbox. The lists ultimately should reflect "processes" common to your particular business.

You can add to the predefined "actions" and "transaction types" to suit your organization but do not modify or deactivate those that are in use.
