Analysis codes (BOM settings)

Analysis codes are used in reporting.

You can set up to 20 default analysis codesAnalysis codes are used in accounts modules to indicate common sales or purchase accounts. Assigning an analysis code to a sales or purchase account allows you to group transactions for payment or for reporting purposes.You can attach up to 20 different analysis codes for reporting purposes. Analysis codes are used in manufacturing modules for analysing and reporting on BOMs, estimates and works orders. For example, you might want to analyse your estimates by industry type and area; so you would set up analysis codes, Industry Type and Area..

Analysis codes are used throughout the Sage 200 Accounting and Manufacturing modules. These allow you to filter the codes that you want to see in use in the BOM module.
