This panel is used when the division concept is activated. A division is a group of cost centres. The division concept offers a possibility to present overall information on division level, rather than on the more detailed cost centre level.

The division entity will mainly be used as a selection criteria for A/P and A/R enquiries, reports, external documents and payment proposals. In the G/L, such a grouping is achieved by the use of summary identities.

To be able to use the division concept you have to define the Cost centre account part field in G/L control file and enter one or more divisions in this table.

A cost centre can only be attached to one division but a division can comprise several cost centres. It is possible to move cost centres between divisions. In that case you may use the DC1 utility programs to re-create A/P and A/R balances and statistics, so that they reflect the new division structure.
