To control combinations of the referencing and referenced transaction codes, the Transaction Allowable References page is provided. All types of references edit against this page: Partial, Final, Memo, and Inverse.
Wildcard values for the referencing transaction code (Transaction Code) and the referenced transaction code (Reference Code) are supported to allow definition at the transaction type level. A value of ALL is used in such a case. Wildcard availability means that the application will try to find a record with an exact match first, and if found, then that record is used. If no exact match is found then an attempt will be made to find a wildcard entry.
Entries added to this page do not guarantee that a reference can be made between two transactions. Certain transaction types have edits in place that will not allow this. For example, commodity-based transactions do not allow references to non-commodity transactions.
The fields on the Transaction Allowable References (DARF) page are as follows with common are omitted:
