• When Enterprise Installation option for Cost centers is set to Yes or Pending in this company, then when adding or changing a tax code, the system will allow entry of a G/L account code only if the operator entering the G/L account has permission to assign that code. The system compares the G/L account's list of shared cost centers with cost centers in the operator's assigned scheme, and if there are no common cost centers, then that G/L account cannot be assigned.

• Once a G/L account code has been assigned to a tax code (by an authorized operator), then that G/L account will be used by all operators for processing involving that tax code.
