The system maintains descriptions for each of the supported application ledger types. Each application ledger description is stored in a template that is automatically added when the application is installed.
Each template represents a base or master copy of ledger requirements. You then add, or adjust this template to define the specific structure of the selected ledger. To create a new ledger, you must have the required templates as a starting point.
Template maintenance allows you view templates and alter the default page setup or menu level security (MLS) table.
To view templates
Click Manage > Templates. The Template window lists installed application ledger templates on two tabs:
