Why Acct Category does not populate in the database ( Account table) ?

Posted on by

User enters the Account Category to the active account number on the chart of Accounts maintenance screen.

But when I run the query against "Account" table, there is no data in the Acct_cat field. Others are showing no problem.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Okay... found a workaround way to produce the data N-- needs to go to Accounts maintenance screen > check the Require employee and Require units boxes > Save to produce "Y" in the pj_account table > uncheck 2 boxes and save > to change from "Y" to "N" .

    it looks like the program has been changed, I think it used to be default as "N" and it is blank .... MSFT might need to check into this.

    I found out the front end screen is pulling from a different table ( pj_account) for the Account Category in the Accounts Maintenance Screen.

    It looks like if we need to populate the Category on the frontend , the employ_sw and Units_sw need to entered as N. But where can I populate the data with N?
