Sub-Object Code

> > >> >

The Sub-Object document is used to define an optional part of the accounting string that allows you to create finer distinctions within a particular object code on an account.

Sub-object codes are specific to an account and a fiscal year and take on most of the attributes of the object code to which they report, including object code type and sub-type.

The Sub-Object Code document contains the Edit Sub Object Code tab.
