This POS option in Options Configuration is only for multistore users.
This option determines if clerks are allowed to process charges to customers whose accounts were opened in another store. Y = Cross store charges are allowed for all customers.
N = Cross stores charges are not allowed for any customers.
W = Cross store charges are allowed for all customers and a warning message displays.
For example:
An account is set up in the Customer Maintenance window and the St Acct Opened option is set to 1 (for Store 1). The customer attempts to charge a transaction in Store 3. The following message displays:
CUSTOMER ACCOUNT NOT IN THIS STORE; PRESS <CLEAR> OR <ENTER>
