Maintaining Financial Groups

You can maintain the financial groups that users assign to items when setting up frames and other products. You can assign one financial group to each item. When adding financial groups, you should create categories as specific or as broad as you need for reporting and general ledger use. For example, if an item falls into the consignment and sunglass categories, you can create a financial group called Consignment Sunglass.

  • You cannot delete a financial group or edit the item type associated with it after you create it. You can deactivate financial groups that you do not want available for the configured item type.
  • For multitenant environments, the following setup can be performed only by administrators of the parent company and is required only for the parent company. The parent company setup applies to all companies.
