Files & Cost Centers
This is the core of the filing system of Socrate. Each contact, company,
project, asset,... is assigned a file which will hold any transaction related to
this one.
Files are processed depending on their category: contact files will hold
addresses, debit/credit ceilings, terms of payment, etc. while an asset file
will hold purchase value, and depreciation methods...
Each is the container of transactions recorded by other modules (accounting
entries, orders, memos, invoices, etc.).By
referring to a file in any transaction,
the system keeps a virtual copy of this transaction into the file. Thus when
querying it, Socrate displays a consolidated overview of the content of this one
(accounts, sales, memos, etc.
