Dept-Purchases
This account in the Setup G/L Passoff window is for Purchasing to A/P Passoff (Function APP) users only. If you enter an account number in this field, APP will pass off purchases information for that department to this account.
Do not leave this field blank if you want to pass off purchases information to General Ledger by department. If you do leave this field blank, the system will pass off the purchases information for this department to the "generic" (non-departmental) purchases account number that you entered in the Options Configuration window.
This field is numeric. You can enter up to four numbers in the first space, and up to three numbers in the second space. The last three numbers of the account number should indicate the department to which you want the system to pass off. For example, you might use the last three digits of 100 for department 1, 200 for department 2, and so on.
The account number you enter (including the last three digits which specify the department) must exist in the Chart of Accounts window.
