Validate Job Cost Date and Period

Minor Business Rule

Object Name: B5100016

Parent DLL: CAEC

Location: Client/Server

Language: C

Purpose
Validate date, period, or get current date for a company.

Special Logic

1. Validate by Company, Period, Century, Fiscal Year.
2. Validate by Company, Period for the Current Century and Fiscal Year.

3.  Validate by Company, Thru Date.
4.  Default: Validate Current Company Date.

The Thru Date is set to the Period End Date, and an error is set when the Thru Date is not equal to the period end date. The error can be bypassed
with the suppress error flag.

The start period date is used for retrieval programs that fetch date sensitive information from the F0911. This helps reduce the I/O to the F0008
when retrieving balances.

Data Structure

D5100016 - Validate Job Cost Date and Period

Parameter Name Data Item Data Type Req/Opt I/O/Both

szCompany CO char REQ INPUT

A code that identifies a specific organization, fund, or other reporting entity. The company code must already exist in the Company
Constants table (F0010) and must identify a reporting entity that has a complete balance sheet. At this level, you can have intercompany
transactions. Note: You can use company 00000 for default values such as dates and automatic accounting instructions. You cannot use company 00000
for transaction entries.

jdPeriodEndDate DGL JDEDATE OPT NONE

A date that identifies the financial period to which the transaction is to be posted. The company constants specify the date range for each
financial period. You can have as many as 14 periods. Generally, period 14 is used for audit adjustments. The system validates this field for
PBCO (posted before cutoff), PYEB (prior year ending balance), PACO (post after cutoff), and WACO (post way after cutoff) messages.

mnPeriod PN MATH_NUMERIC OPT NONE

A number indicating the current accounting period.  This number, used in conjunction with the Company Constants table (F0010) and the
General Constants table (F0009), allows the user to define up to 14 accounting periods. See General Ledger Date.  The current period number
is used to determine posted before and posted after cut off warning messages.  It is also used as the default accounting period in the
preparation of financial reports.

mnFiscalYear FY MATH_NUMERIC OPT NONE

A number that identifies the fiscal year. Generally, you can either enter a number in this field or leave it blank to indicate the current fiscal
year (as defined on the Company Setup form). Specify the year at the end of the first period rather than the year at the end of the fiscal period.
For example, a fiscal year begins October 1, 1998 and ends September 30, 1999. The end of the first period is October 31, 1998. Specify the
year 98 rather than 99.

mnCentury CTRY MATH_NUMERIC OPT NONE

The calendar century associated with the year. Enter is the first two digits of the year. For example, 19 indicates any year beginning with 19
(1998, 1999), 20 indicates any year beginning with 20 (2000, 2001), and so on.

szErrorMessage DTAI char OPT OUTPUT

A code that identifies and defines a unit of information. It is an alphanumeric code up to 8 characters long that does not allow blanks or
special characters such as %, &, or +. You create new data items using system codes 55-59. You cannot change the alias.

cSuppressErrorMessage EV01 char OPT INPUT

An option that specifies the type of processing for an event.

jdStartPeriodDate DGL JDEDATE OPT OUTPUT

A date that identifies the financial period to which the transaction is to be posted. The company constants specify the date range for each
financial period. You can have as many as 14 periods. Generally, period 14 is used for audit adjustments. The system validates this field for
PBCO (posted before cutoff), PYEB (prior year ending balance), PACO (post after cutoff), and WACO (post way after cutoff) messages.
