Defined auxiliary codes are accessed through records and slips, and transferred into the related field. Colors can be applied to auxiliary codes, and records and transactions can be grouped and tracked using these colors.
Auxiliary codes are defined using the Auxiliary Code Definitions option located in the Definitions menu of the Administration section. Auxiliary code definitions to be made for each section are listed on the window displayed when the related section is selected. Auxiliary Codes are separately defined for records, slips and slip lines.
