Why:
Default codes may be maintained by chassis type for each item on the vehicle, chassis, discount, cost credits, other changes, extras and trade-in. These defaults are used when a vehicle order is added to the system, or an extra is added to a vehicle order.
Note! The existence of the
‘Default’ entry. This is a system-generated record and it may not be deleted. It
will be used if:
• You add a vehicle order with a chassis type that does not exist in the table.
• You add a vehicle order with a chassis type that exists in the table, but the defaults are blank for the item in question.
Where:
From the Control Master File view, select Default Payment/Account Codes List. This will display the Default Payment/Account Codes List window.
How to Add Edit & Delete Default Payment/Account Codes List Codes:
Default Payment and Account Codes can be set up against new chassis types. Existing chassis types can have their default codes amended, and chassis types can be deleted.
The chassis types entered should correspond to those used in the Vehicle Details window, which are in turn derived from the Vehicle Type Variant Table within Workshop.
Note! The chassis type
entered here is not validated against the variant table.
The Copy option allows you to copy within a single branch from an existing chasssis type to a new chassis type.
The Copy Branch option allows you to copy records from one branch to another, provided the destination branch has no records of its own on file except for the Default record. When the copy takes place, all records are copied from the source to the destination branch including the default record.
When extras are added to a vehicle, the default payment code will always be derived from this defaults table. However, the account code may be derived from the Standard Extras table when a standard extra is addded. If the standard extra does not have an associated account code, then the system will revert to this defaults table.
