Description |
Name of the account. |
Date Active/Date Inactive |
(Date format) - "From" - The default is 01/01/1980 and is the lowest date. "To" - The default date is 12/31/9999. The dates are used to define the allowed date range for transactions posted to this account. The system will accept new transactions only if their effective date is greater than/equal to the Active Date and less than/equal to the Inactive Date. Usually, these dates are not changed from their default values. An account can be made inactive by changing the "thru" date to the desired date that the account will no longer be allowed to have transactions coded to it. When an account is made inactive it will still be visible in the account look-ups, but in a light blue color to indicate that it is inactive and cannot have transactions coded to it. |
