(District)

Access

Use this routine to create a record for each sales district in your organization. A district is defined as a group of stores and/or warehouses. A store or warehouse can belong to only one district.

Districts consist of stores and warehouses grouped for the purpose of segregating sales and sales activity (as opposed to regions, which segregate inventory information). Many reports in STORIS include a District field which you can use to restrict the report's output to data from one or more districts.

To restrict report output by district, Regional Processing must be active.
