Sales Business Setup gives you one online function to set up rules and controls for the whole sales activity in your organization. You may need, for example, to set valid accounting periods or credit checking rules.
Note: Only one Sales Business Setup can be defined per Business Unit.

The following information is defined in the Sales Business Setup:
The ledger files to write transactions to.
The calendar dates when transactions can be processed.
Certain rules and controls in the modules.
Default information to aid operator input.

The sales module is defined using Sales Business Setup (SBS) which contains the following:

System Tab
Business Unit Code
The Business Unit for ledger transactions to be posted to. This allows posting to another Business Unit. If you leave this blank postings will be made to the current Business Unit.
Revision History Required
This box is checked if a revision history is required. Revision records are created when significant changes are made to an order line or header.
Currency Analysis Directory
The analyzable entity used as the default currency code on a Sales Order line, if  none is supplied by the Sales Type or entered by the user. This is always an Analysis Code. In the Analysis Directory specify where the code is held, for example, on the Order by Address. This field cannot be left blank if the Transaction Currency field has been activated in the Business Unit Setup.
Transaction Analysis Dimension
This identifies which of the ten possible analysis dimensions attached to the above analyzable entity holds the currency code. This means that by holding a currency code as an analysis dimension against an address, for example, the correct currency is automatically selected whenever that address is used. If you leave these entries blank, or the code is blank, the Base Currency is used instead.

Batch or Online Posting
If you are serialized to use SunSystems Financials, this field indicates whether posting is carried out online (after posting requested) or by batch (when requested by Financials).
Error Suspense Account Value 1-3
Indicates the Error Suspense Account. Used when posting is selected.
Current Period
The current accounting period to be used for the Sales module. This can also be amended using the Change Period (CP) function.
Temporary Address Format
The Transaction Reference Format to be used to automatically create references for Temporary Addresses.
Hide Temporary Address
If this is checked, when Temporary Addresses are created their status is set to Hidden instead of Open.
Defining Periods and Dates
If you wish to restrict the entry period or date on Sales transactions you can use the following fields on the System tab to define specific ranges of periods and dates. Transactions can then only be entered within these ranges. These are referred to as the Open Ranges.
Leave these fields blank if you do not wish to set these restrictions.
Note: Once these have been set up, they are only updated by amending these fields in the Sales Business Setup.
Period Open From
The first period in the range.
Period Open To
The last period in the range.
Date Open From
The first date in the range.
Date Open To
The last date in the range.
Instead of defining specific dates or periods which then have to be maintained, you can ask the system to calculate the Open Ranges relative to the current date or period. To do this enter a positive or negative number in the following fields. For example, if the Open Period From Relative field is set to -3 and the Open Period To Relative field is set to +3, the Open Range will be calculated as starting three periods before the current period and ending three periods after the current period. That is, a total of seven periods.
Open Period From Relative
Used to calculate the first period in the range.
Open Period To Relative
Used to calculate the last period in the range.
Open Date From Relative
Used to calculate the first date in the range.
Open Date To Relative
Used to calculate the last period in the range.
