Account Classifications

 

 

This screen is accessed from here.

 

Header

 

  • Trading week starts on - Displays the start of trading week day. This setting is set here.

 

Grid

 

The grid displays the: # (Classification Number) and Description, as well as:

 

  • Reset Interval - Select from the drop-down list a reset interval, that will determine when Accounts assigned to the selected Classifications will have their balances reset to zero:

 

Once a reset interval is selected, then all Accounts assigned to the selected Classification will have their balance reset to zero. This feature was originally designed for sites that use Accounts for internal purposes. Access to this feature (ie. the resetting of Account Balances) can be restricted via the Clerks Security Groups menu item. Sales transactions recorded against Accounts assigned to the selected Classification will remain, and SOH will be correctly adjusted for a Stocktake. 


This feature can also be used for things like Drinks Cards where each Account has a limit of say $5 and Customers can spend up to that amount. All the Drinks Cards can have their balances reset so the cards can be reused again for the next event.


Note : A Reset Interval must be selected to manually reset Account balances.


  • Day of Reset - Select from the drop-down list the day required. The options available are No Reset, Daily Reset, Reset on 1st to 27th day and Last day of month. Note : A Day of Reset must be selected to manually reset Account balances.
  • Venues - Select to open the Venues screen to select the Venues to which access will be granted when Customers/Members, assigned to the selected Classification, transact in Touch and/or Reception. The same Customers/Members will NOT be granted access at those Venues that have not been selected. The default is all Venues. Account Classifications that have been assigned to individual Venues will use the Venue's Contact Info for Statements. See other Security related information here.
  • Price Level - Select to open the Classification Price Level screen to select a default Price Level for Customers in this Classification.
  • Last Reset Date - Displays/Set the last date a reset occurred. Any manual changes to this date are logged and can be reported on using the Database Activity (ADM002) and Database Audit (ADM001) reports.
