AE: Making department mandatory but only on expense account types
Hi,
We have a situation where we want to use the department option and make mandatory in certain circumstances but not all. I know there is a blanket approach through the accounting preferences to make this applicable to all transactions but ideally we only need to make this mandatory when a transaction is entered against one of the expense type accounts in the chart of accounts. Would there be a way to make this applicable across all transaction types eg. journal, invoice etc but only make this mandatory when an expense account was selected as part of the entry?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
