### Common Fields used in this Implementation Guide

Area | Enter a value that defines a collection of communities. You can set up one area or multiple areas depending on the business requirements.
Community | Note. Enter a value that specifies a community, project, or subdivision. A community is a distinct grouping of lots which can be grouped together through user-defined specifications, such as product offering, geography, and so on. A subset of the builder's plans and options are typically included within a community. Enter four zeros in this field directly after the community number. For example, if the community number is 5555, enter 55550000.
Cost Code | Enter a subset of an object account. Subsidiary accounts include detailed records of the accounting activity for an object account. This field is validated against the cost code structure set up for the area. Note. If you use a flexible chart of accounts and the object account is set to six digits, you must use all six digits. For example, if you enter 456, the system enters three blank spaces to fill a six-digit object.
Cost Type | Enter the portion of a general ledger account that refers to the division of the cost code (for example, labor, materials, and equipment) into subcategories. For example, you can divide the cost code for labor into regular time, premium time, and burden. You can use processing options to modify cost type. Note. If you use a flexible chart of accounts and the object account is set to six digits, you must use all six digits. For example, if you enter 456, the system enters three blank spaces to fill a six-digit object.
Cost Code Template | Enter a code that indicates the job or business unit from which the account master records for a lot are copied.
Effective From (Date) | Enter the date that a bid, contract, or option becomes available for the buyer to select.
Expired Date | Enter the date that a bid, contract, or option is no longer available for the buyer to select.
Item Number | Enter a number that identifies the item. The system provides three types of item numbers: Item Number (short): An eight-digit, computer-assigned item number. 2nd Item Number: A 25-digit, user-defined, alphanumeric item number. 3rd Item Number: Another 25-digit, user-defined, alphanumeric item number. In addition to these three basic item numbers, the system provides an extensive cross-reference search capability. You can define numerous cross-references to alternative part numbers. For example, you can define substitute item numbers, replacements, bar codes, customer numbers, or supplier numbers.
Line Type | Enter code that specifies how the system processes lines on a transaction. This value specifies the systems with which the transaction interfaces, such as the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost and the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management systems. It also specifies the conditions under which a line prints on reports and is included in calculations. Values include: S: Stock item J: Job cost N: Non-stock item F: Freight T: Text information M: Miscellaneous charges and credits W: Work order
Option Number | Enter a specific upgrade not included in the base house price and cost. In the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Accounting and the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost systems, this field corresponds to the subledger field, for example, Subledger Type X.
Tax Rate/Area | Enter a code that identifies a tax or geographic area that has common tax rates and tax authorities. The system validates the code you enter against the Tax Areas table (F4008). The system uses the tax rate area in conjunction with the tax explanation code and tax rules to calculate tax and GL distribution amounts when you create an invoice or voucher.
Unit of Measure | Enter a code from UDC 00/UM that specifies the unit of measure that the system uses to express the quantity of an item, for example, EA (each) or KG (kilogram).
