1. Period
Enter the current period or period when actual processing in PO will begin (PPYY). The entry must be in the current or next GL period. Press Enter to initially default to the current GL period.
2. Date Of Last End-Of-Period Update
During normal processing, this field is maintained by the End-of-Period Update program. Press Enter to initially default to 01/01/00, indicating that no update has previously been run.
*3-6. Numbers Used
These numbers keep track of the last number used and as a (non)PO is created or a register is updated, the last number used is incremented by one. Upon installation, these fields should be set to 0. These fields will automatically be updated through normal processing. Press Enter to initially default to 0.
*7. Terminal Running Receipt Register
Enter the 3-character ID of the terminal that is currently running the PO Receipt Register. Enter blanks to indicate that the register is not running. The register usually sets this field automatically. You can override it if, for instance, a user has aborted out of a register and you need to set this field back to blanks. Press F2 or to search terminal IDs.
NOTE: You must enter the predefined password to access this field.
