Parameter Definitions

The parameters set in the (LG3) Order Entry Pricing Parameters screen govern how your system handles pricing information in order entry. Some of these fields have a major influence on how your system operates. DDMS recommends that you complete a certain number of these fields before going live.

 

Preset parameter options are provided for location 1 when you receive the DDMS system. This means that even if you make no changes to the fields in the (LG3) screen, you can use the applications. However, you may determine that one or more of the preset options need to be changed to best suit the needs of your business, or that you need to set up additional locations.

 

You can set up separate parameters for each general ledger location (profit center). Begin by verifying whether the preset options for location 1 are suitable for your business needs. When you have set the parameters for location 1, set up separate parameters for each additional location that you run differently than location 1. If you do not set up separate parameters for a particular location, the parameters set for location 1 are used for that location.
