Define District Cashier's Office preferences

To set district cashier's office preferences:

  1. Log on to the District view.
  2. Click the District tab, Setup side-tab, then Preferences. The general preferences page appears.
  3. Use the Category drop-down to select Cashier's Office:

  1. Use the following table to enter information in the fields:
    FieldDescription
    Reference Number Generation

    Next value

    The starting reference number, from which all future reference numbers are generated. For example, if you want your system’s sequence of transaction reference numbers to begin at 0 instead of 1, type 0 in this field.

    Ordinarily, all transactions have a unique reference number. If you want two transactions to share the same reference number, however, enter the first transaction's information on the Cashier's Office Input page, note the reference number assigned to that transaction, and type that number in this field. Click Save. Aspen will assign that reference number to the next transaction created in the system.

    Increment

    The value by which Aspen increases the previous reference number to create a new reference number. For example, if you want all transaction reference numbers in your system to be separated by increments of 5, type 5 in this field.

    Length

    The length of the reference numbers Aspen generates, in digits. For example, typing 6 in this field with a “Next value” of 1 would result in the first reference code being 000001.

    Prefix

    If you want your system's transaction reference numbers to be preceded by a static character or combination of characters, type the character(s) here.

    Currency locale

    Currency locale

    Select your region from the drop-down. Based on your selection, Aspen automatically determines how transactions are formatted. For instance, choosing English (United States) causes transactions to appear in U.S. dollars, with number groupings separated by commas and cents denoted by a period.
