    Accounts Default Types are named account placeholders for specific FOURA processes.  By using a named placeholder, all the logic and setup can be done ahead of time for each workflow, even before the Chart of Accounts is known or finalized.  After the Chart of Accounts is setup then you can set a specific account for each default type using the Accounts tab on the Companies form.

    Account default types are used on the following forms:

    Form Menu Code Usage
    Order Types OTY Setup the Freight, Sales and Issue account types to use for each type of order.
    Adjust Types ADT Setup the account type to use as the offset account for each adjustment type.
