How to Set a Short Name Field to Default from Long Name

Did you know you can set the short name field in several entry screens to default to whatever you've entered in the longer name field? Sign in with Administrator rights and, activating the F7 Field Properties key, enter the following in the "Default entry to" field:

1-7 General Ledger Accounts - lgract.lngnme

3-5 Accounts Receivable Jobs - actrec.jobnme

3-6 Receivable Clients - reccln.clnme

4-4 Accounts Payable Vendors - actpay.vndnme

8-3 Equipment - eqpmnt.eqpnme

Once you've entered the default entry, Save the Field Properties. You will need to start a new record for the default to take effect.
