BL01

BL01.1 - Process Level

Use this form to define a process level for a company. A process level is a
user-defined breakdown within a company, such as a department, division, or
sales office. It represents the level at which you track sales, and is used as
a reporting break on reports within the system. You can assign various
defaults, including location, ship days (to calculate default expected ship
date on an order), and reason code to a process level.

In addition, you can control invoicing at the process level instead of at the
company level. If invoicing parameters were not entered at the company level,
you can enter them at the process level on this form. If you do set up
invoicing at the process level, you will be responsible for specifying your
process level when you create invoices using BL122 (Invoice and Register
Print).

Process levels affect general ledger accounts. Unique general ledger accounts
are needed for each process level. The system uses these accounts to determine
the Accounts Receivable general ledger account to be debited for invoices and
all the default accounts to be debited and credited for special item orders.
