The Project Code document is used to define an optional part of the accounting string that allows you to assign an identifier to particular transactions that might span multiple accounts. Because Project Code is not specific to an account it can be used to track project activity that is shared across multiple accounts within an organization or even across multiple organizations.
The use of this code allows individuals to run reports using the code and to get a listing of all revenues and expenditures that have been assigned to the project.
The Project Code document includes the Edit Project Code tab. The system automatically enters data into both the Old and New sections. Selected data fields are available for editing.
