Setting function defaults

Basics of using a Ramco Enterprise series web page

Using online help

This activity allows you to define the functional defaults for the “Supplier Order Based Invoice” business component. Function defaults are set for the system to follow while raising the invoice. The system sets its own values by default. These functional defaults can be modified according to the requirements of the user.

This page allows you to set the functional defaults the first time you install this business component. You can set defaults for the finance book, in which the accounts must be posted. You can also set whether you want a default organization unit in which the payment for the supplier would be processed. You can also define a unique prefix for the pay term. You can also set the percentage of tolerance that must be considered while trying to match the invoices. The system stores the login user ID and the system date along with modification details.
