Manage Tree Structure Masters

Some of the masters in iVendNext are maintained in tree structure. Tree structured masters allow you to set Parent master, and Child masters under those Parents. Setting up this structure allows you to create intelligent reports, and track growth at each level in the hierarchy.

Following is the partial list of masters which are maintained in the tree structure.

  • Chart of Accounts

  • Chart of Cost Centers

  • Customer Group

  • Territory

  • Sales Person

  • Item Group

Following are the steps to manage and create records in the tree structured master. Let's consider Territory master to understand managing tree masters.

Step 1 : Go to Master 

Selling > Setup > Territory

Step 2 : Parent Territory 

Territory Tree

When clicking on Parent territory, you will see an option to add child territory under it. All default Territory groups will be listed under the parent group called "All Territories". You can add further Parent or child Territory Groups under it.

Step 3: Add new Territory 

When clicking on Add Child, a dialog box will provide two fields.

Territory Group Name

Territory will be saved with Territory Name provided here.

Group Node

If Group Node selected as Yes, then this Territory will be created as Parent, which means you can further create sub-territories under it. If select No, then it will become child Territory which you will be able to select in other masters.

Only child Territory Groups are selectable in other masters and transactions.

Following is how Child Territories will be listed under a Parent Territory.

Child Tree

Following these steps, you can manage other tree masters as well in iVendNext.
