Fields

Description

Checkbox

Used to select one or more records.

Length

A text box to set the number of characters for the Account Segment. This is required and must be >=1 and <= the value in the 'Max Length'. This is not editable after the initial Save.

Database Field: ERPx_GLAccountFormat.SegmentLength

Max Length

A text box to set the maximum number of characters you would ever envision for each Account Segment. GL Accounts have a max allowable length of 66 so the sum of all the Max Lengths cannot exceed 66 characters. In most companies that values are the same in both the 'Length' and 'Max Length' fields or the values in the 'Max Length' fields exceed the values in the 'Length' by 1 or 2.

This is required and must be >=1 and the total of all these values must be <= 66. This is not editable after the initial Save. 

Database Field: ERPx_GLAccountFormat.SegmentMaxLength

Natural Account

A Yes/No lookup to identify whether or not the Account Segment is the Natural Account. The value defaults to "No" but can be changed at anytime. 

A value of "Yes" means that the Segment is the Natural Account and a value of "No" means that it is not. One of the Segments, and only one, must be assigned as the Natural Account.

Database Field: ERPx_GLAccountFormat.IsNaturalAccount 

Segment

The unique identifier of the Segment. This defaults to blank but is required for all records, must be unique, and must be <= 15 characters. Typical Names would include names like: Account, Company, Department, and Division.

Database Field: ERPx_GLAccountFormat.SegmentName 

Seq.

A label to identify the sequence your segments should be in. This is never editable.
