Depending on your access rights, you may edit or delete an existing activity type code record. The changes you make will only affect the transactions that you post after the changes are saved.

 

 

To update an activity type code, perform the following:

 

1.Access the Activity Type Maintenance function from the Activity group under the Maintenance menu in Accounts Receivable, Purchase Order or Sales Order modules. The Search screen is automatically displayed when this function is accessed.

 

2.Enter in the Search field the activity type code that you want to update, or you may scroll up and down the grid to locate the record; then, double-click the activity type code to select. As soon as an activity type code is selected, the details are displayed on their respective fields in the different pages of this function.

 

Alternatively, you may use the full text search feature when searching for address code records. Simply click the Show Full Text Search button in the right-most section of the screen to display the Full Text Search field.  Enter in this field the value of the record you want to search for using the values in the columns displayed on the Search screen.
