Non-Financial Lists

Administration > Maintenance > Non-Financial Lists

Non-Financial Lists give you the ability to create lists of values for data entry/selection fields within the Workplace application.

Once created, these lists can then be used in various setup areas of the application or with other modules to create restrictions for data selection in these fields or to define specific criteria where the values can be used.

The values available for Non-financial List creation will vary with WorkPlace installed modules and Interfaces.
