Sales Transaction Classes are used to categorize sales transactions within specific transaction types and assign specific default values and business rules for each. They are assigned when the New icon is selected for sales transactions. For example, if there was a need to differentiate between Fresh and Frozen transactions, you could create Transaction Classes for each. The purpose of this page is to add, edit, remove, and activate/inactive these records.

Toolbar Icons	Description
Delete	Deletes the selected record(s). When clicked, users will be prompted with: "Are you sure you want to delete the selected records?". Click "OK" to confirm, or "Cancel" to return without deleting. Note: If a record is not selected prior to clicking the button, the message “Please select a row to delete.” will be displayed. _{WARNING: Records cannot be recovered once they are deleted!}
Edit	Opens the selected record for editing. If a record is not selected, the message "Please select a row to edit." will be displayed.
Excel	Clicking the Excel toolbar icon exports the current contents of the grid to an Excel file that is automatically downloaded. The contents that export are only those currently visible. If the grid is filtered, only the filtered contents will be exported.
Favorites	Clicking on the star icon when it is an outline, adds the page to the 'My Shortcuts' tab and fills in the star. Clicking on the star icon when it is filled in (solid color), removes the page from the 'My Shortcuts' tab and returns the icon to an outline. Users must log out and back in before the pages will be visible in the 'My Shortcuts' tab.
Grid Layout	Opens the Saved Grid Layout menu that allows the user to select another saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to a grid, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Saved Grid Layout icon and save the changes to the grid layout and name the new layout. The new layout can also be set as the default, instead of the System View. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific). The bolded view is the default view, which will determine the view will automatically display in when opened.
Help	Opens the online WIKI help page for the current page. This icon is only visible on pages that are documented in the online help.
New	Opens a new blank record for data entry.
Fields	Description
Checkbox	Used to select one or more records for delete or mass update.
Document Prefix	Identifies the value in the 'Document Prefix' property on the record view. This defaults to blank for new records and is not required. The 'Document Prefix' is used in conjunction with the 'Next Document Number' to determine the system assigned Transaction ID's. Transaction ID's are created by stringing together the [Document Prefix] + [Next Ticket Number] from the applicable Transaction Class. The 'Next Document Number' is auto-incremented each time a new transaction for the selected transaction class is created. This field is always editable from the record view and must be <= 10 characters. Linked Database Field: ERPx_SOOrderTypeDocument.DocumentPrefix
Inactive	A Yes/No field used to identify if the record is Inactive. If set to 'Yes' then the record is "Inactive" and will not be listed as a value when the 'New' icon is clicked from Sales Transactions List View. If set to 'No' then the record is "Active" and can be freely used. Linked Database Field: ERPx_SOOrderTypeDocument.IsInactive

The options include: Transaction with Journal Details: When transactions for this Transaction Class are posted, an outbound record is created so that it can be imported by the host system. This can only happen if the Outbound Transaction Type of "SO Transaction Class" is configured in the Integration Configuration master file.

This field is always editable from the record view. Linked Database Field: ERPx_SOOrderTypeDocument.IntegrationMethodEN
