How to create an Analysis type
Access Settings, then go to Business Settings, then choose Analysis Types.
If necessary, amend the code and name of the first category. Then repeat as needed. Ensure you enter at least two digits in the code.
To add more than three categories, simply enter a code and name on the next line
To delete a category, click the delete button
NOTE:When a category appears in a transaction or record, a tick shows up in the In use column. You can't delete a category that's in use. Rename it to Not in use if it appears in a transaction. For group categories, remove them from the relevant record and delete them.
Under Active Areas for this Analysis Type, select the relevant check boxes.
Click Save.
Repeat steps Two to Six for up to three analysis types you want to create.
If you created a transaction analysis type, when you post a transaction, you have the option of selecting the relevant category.
If you created a group analysis type, you need to allocate it to the relevant records.
