Diary Reference Edit MALN

Use this screen to enter Diary Reference codes manually. You can enter a diary reference code prior to entering an event. If the system automatically creates your diary reference codes, you do not need to create supplier and transaction reference codes. If the system automatically creates your user, supplier and transaction diary reference codes, you can either enter general and user-defined diary reference codes or enter reference codes when creating the events.
