Defining G/L Product Types

Define G/L product types that the system uses in combination with sales sources for sales analysis. For example, you might define your product types as plumbing or electric, or you could define them as interior plumbing and interior electric as well as exterior plumbing and exterior electric.

Consult Eclipse Technical Support before changing products types.

To define a G/L product type:

  1. From the System > System Programming > G/L Setup menu, select G/L Product Types to display the G/L Product Type Maintenance dialog box.

  2. Click OK to close the warning.

  3. In the G/L Product TypeDescription column, enter a short, descriptive name for the product type, such as Heating.

  4. In the StndPost Extension column, enter an abbreviation of up to eight alphabetic characters that is used as an internal system reference, such as HTG.

  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for addition product types.

  6. Click OK to save the product types and exit the window.
