Setting up Nominal accounts and Nominal Links

Setting up Nominal accounts and Nominal Links

Firstly, you will need to create your nominal account within Protean before it can be used in the system.

  • To do this you will need to go to System ➔ Nominals ➔ Nominal Accounts

  • Within here you will see your list of nominal codes, to add a new code go to the bottom of the list and there will be a blank box for you to enter the new code and description.
    You will also see there are tick boxes to specify whether this nominal has a department and/or cost centre.

You will notice there are also tabs to create your Departments and Cost Centres in the same way.

  • Once you have your Nominal codes set up you will want to set up your nominal links by going to System > Nominals > Nominal Links

 

  • In here you will see a fixed list of Protean codes where a nominal code will need assigning to create the link.
  • When you click the drop down box next to the relevant item this will show you the list of your nominal accounts you can select, you can also just type the code in if you prefer.
