How Nominal, Cost Centre and Departments are handled in Sage 200
In order to make nominal selection easy, PostTrans for Sage 200 handles the Nominal codes in one of two ways.
Option 1 : Nominal/Cost Centre/Department
If a template has just NomCode specified on it, then the Nominal analysis is entered as Nominal/Cost Centre/Department.
For Example:
Of course the nominal code is easily selected thanks to In Cell Searching
Option 2 : Specify Nominal, Cost Centre and Department in separate cells
This format is more useful if formulas are use to derive the Cost Centre and Department Cost Centre and Department values.
The above example shows this principle used in a nominal journal. But the same principle is used when importing Stock, Customers, Suppliers, Sales Order and any where else where a nominal code is specified.
