To ensure that DP contracts & new Delivery Sheets created get the correct Storage or DP table attached to them you will want to set this table as your Default. Go to GRN > Commodity Tables > Discount Tables > #5 Default Discount Tables enter the Commodity & Location Code. You will see a grid of all the application types. For DP, determine if you use little dp, where you apply to dp type, or if you use big DP, where you apply to a DP Contract. Highlight the appropriate application & hit Enter or Select at the bottom of the screen. You will find the Storage and/or DP table field on the bottom right hand side of the page. You can select the magnifying glass to ensure selecting the correct table needed as the default. Highlight the correct table & hit Select. Then select Ok on the next page to Save your selection. It will ask "Do you Want These Changes To Affect All Locations?", if your tables should be unique by Location you will want to select No.
