Before You Start

Make sure the user has access to this menu and the related reference data has already been prepared.
Check required fields first, especially codes, names, dates, accounts, customers, suppliers, products, divisions, or departments.
If the form uses active status, confirm the status before saving so the data appears in the correct selections.

Fill in the required fields and complete supporting information that helps search, reporting, or transaction processing.
