Unit

The Unit (UNIT) table allows you to define unit codes and associated information related to the unit. This element is an organizational chart of accounts element that is not required in the system. Refer to the "Organization Elements" topic in the CGI Advantage - Chart of Accounts User Guide for more information.

Configuration Points:

  • Departments must first be set up on the Department (DEPT) table.

  • This table also allows you to assign a Central Buyer/Team and/or a Decentralized Buyer/Team for a specific Unit. Advantage assigns workload based on the Unit if one is not provided for the Commodity. Buyers must first be set up on the Buyer (BUYR) table, and Buyer Teams must first be set up on the Buyer Team (WBUYR) table.
