Configurable Default Description for Unallocated Cash Receipts - Enhancement

You can now define a default description for Unallocated Cash receipts via System Configuration, allowing greater flexibility and alignment with internal accounting terminology and reporting standards.

Unallocated Cash receipt transactions created from Credit/Sundry Receipts can now have a configurable default description instead of the description "Amount in Credit". 

If a new default description is configured, it will automatically populate when creating Unallocated Cash receipts. Users can still manually override the description where required. If no default description is set, the system will continue to use the existing wording of "Amount in Credit".

  3. Click Add New Parameter
  4. Enter a new Parameter Code of UCACCTDESC
  5. In the Parameter Description field, enter your desired default description for Unallocated Cash receipts. 
  6. Click Submit
