About AP05.3

Use Distribution Code (AP05.3) to define and maintain distribution codes for a company. You can use distribution codes in place of entering expense distribution lines during invoice entry. Distribution codes automatically default one or more general ledger distribution accounts to an invoice. You can define distribution code lines with flat amounts, percentages, or blank amounts (a "shell") to be filled in during invoice entry. When you use a distribution code that has a percentage defined for each line, any "extra" distribution amount caused by rounding is included in the last distribution line. If you would like to charge multiple accounting units and accounts, select Service in he Edit Accounts field and add or modify the account details. You must use Percent values (amounts are not allowed when charging multiple accounting units and accounts) and the total percentage must equal 100%. Distribution codes follow a system default hierarchy that ultimately assigns the codes to invoices in AP20 (Invoice Entry).

More information: An asterisk displays next to the Unit button if units information is defined for a distribution line. An asterisk displays next to the AM button if asset information is defined for a distribution line.
