Suffix mask. – When posting to an account specified as either 8S9 or 8B9 type, it is
possible to enter a suffix by which the account details will be consolidated. A mask
may be specified to ensure that suffix details are validated. A = Alpha characters,
# = Numeric characters. It is possible to have a mixture of both (i.e. A######).
Warning: If this field is left 8blank9, on a suffix type account then the suffix field, when
posting to the account, will not be mandatory.
It is also possible to enter the word 8File9. This forces that any suffix entered, when
posting to the account, is validated against a look up table.
Year End Consolidation. – This controls how the Balance Sheet accounts are
affected when running the year end process.
A – All entries are consolidated at year end.
S – Entries are consolidated by suffix.
P- As at a normal period end. Most accounts will be set to 8P9.
