Finance Reference Data

The Finance reference data window can be accessed by navigating to Finance > Finance.

You must have a role with the FinancialReferenceData permission to access this window.

Refer to Managing Reference Data for further information on using reference data screens.

The following reference data is available:

Chart of Accounts

Use this reference data to define account codes, which typically represent the type of spend for a financial transaction (for example: reactive repairs, legal fees, demolition costs, and so on).

Cost Code Format

Use this reference data to define the cost code formats.

Cost codes are the combined full code allocated to the transaction and typically include the cost centre and the account code, potentially with other defined parts such as a property code or free text.

This may be of particular use if the reactive commitment budgeting data is to be synchronised between K2 and a finance system, to ensure that K2 has the code formats required.

You can define up to seven parts to a cost code and pull information into each part from the Cost Centre, Chart of Accounts, Pre-Defined pick lists, or free entry.

You can select from the Delimiter drop-down to separate the cost code using various characters.

Credit Note Status

Use this reference data to define the statuses of credit notes (for example: In Progress, Complete, and so on).

Financial Periods

Use this reference data to define a financial period within a financial year (for example: a month or a quarter within a financial year).

Changes made to Financial Periods reference data will affect all modules using this reference data.
