You can use analysis codes as a way of classifying your stock items so that you distinguish between them.
The analysis codes that you've set to use on stock items are shown here. Just choose the required value for this item. If you don't want to use a value for a particular code, just leave the value blank.
If the analysis code you need is not shown, check that you've:
- Set up the analysis code in Accounting System Manager.
- Specified that the analysis code is used with Stock Items on the Maintain Analysis Codes screen.
Default nominal codes are inherited from those set in the product group. They can be overridden on the stock item. They are the nominal accounts you would expect to use in most instances when stock values are posted to the Nominal Ledger.
There are four default nominal codes; two for Balance Sheet postings and two for Profit and Loss postings.
The Balance Sheet nominal accounts are:
- Stock: This is the nominal account for stock assets used when recording stock in and out of the system.
- Accrued receipts: This is the liability account used when goods have been received but not invoiced. This type of transaction is recorded in the Purchase Order Processing module.
The Profit and Loss nominal accounts are:
- Revenue: This is the nominal account used to post the value of stock when it is sold.
- Issues: This is the nominal account used to post the value of stock issued.
Each time the stock item is added to a transaction, the relevant default nominal accounts are displayed. If required, you can change the displayed nominal accounts when entering stock transactions.
Note: You must have chosen to Integrate with the nominal ledger in the Stock settings.
To change the displayed nominal accounts on sales or purchase orders, you must have choose Allow the amendment of nominal accounts in the SOP and POP settings.
You can change the default nominal codes at any time. This will only affect transactions created after you make this change.
