Enter Update Parameters

Explanation

This activity is used to specify the various control parameters used in the update routine, such as accepted difference, number of levels in chain of automatic postings, and number of days in the update history. It must also be specified whether a period allocation voucher should be created for the base period when period allocation is done. This is normally done before starting the updating routine for the first time.
