🚨 How to Set Preferences for Class, Department, and Location in Journal Entries in NetSuite 🚨

This tutorial will guide you through configuring preferences for managing class, department, and location classifications in journal entries in NetSuite.

Step-by-Step Guide 📋

1. Navigate to Accounting Preferences 🛠️

  • Go to Setup > Accounting > Accounting Preferences.
  • Open the General Subtab to access classification options.

2. Enable Line-Level Classification 📝

  • Check Always Allow Per Line Classification on Journals:
    • Enables entering Classes, Departments, and Locations on individual journal entry line items.

3. Allow Non-Balancing Classifications 🚨

  • Check Allow Non-Balancing Classifications on Journals:
    • Allows journal entries with line items that lack Class, Department, or Location, even if they are mandatory on other forms.

4. Enable Empty Classifications (Optional) ⚙️

  • If you have enabled the Inter-Company Time and Expense feature and require mandatory classifications, enable Allow Empty Classifications on Journals:
    • This allows line items to be processed even if classifications are empty.

5. Key Notes 📝

  • Per Line Classification ensures detailed tracking for journal entries.
  • Non-Balancing Classifications provide flexibility in cases where line items lack specific classifications.
  • Use Empty Classifications for inter-company transactions to accommodate mandatory settings.
