What it is for
An object category is a second way to sort service objects, next to the object group: "light vehicle", "heavy vehicle", "reefer container".
Every field in plain words
| Field | What it means | What to put |
|---|---|---|
| Object Category | The code or number of this record | A short unique code, or the next number when a number range is set up. Required. Cannot be changed once saved |
| Name | The name | Free text. Required |
| Block | Stops the record from being picked on new documents | Leave clear while it is in use |
How to configure it
Add one line per value the business uses. Keep the codes short and the names in the words the staff use. The name is stored in every language the company works in; the one you type is kept for your language and copied to the others until someone translates it.
