Description of fields:

Background Menu Color Select a color for the application's background to help distinguish this entity from others in your system. You can select a color from the drop-down menu, enter a hexadecimal code (e.g., "500A14"), or enter an RGB color code (e.g., "80,10,20").
External Entity # This number is used in place of the regular entity number in exported files (e.g., those exported through the Export Text Files utility). This is useful, for example, if you use another software package for accounting and the Compeat entity number does not match the entity number used in the other software package.
Force direct inventory transfers Check to have inter-store transfers automatically posted. Both the sending and receiving stores must have this checked. This eliminates the need for the receiving store to review and post the transfer in AP Invoices.
Currency If this entity records transactions in a foreign currency (not U.S. dollars) and it is desired to do financial reporting in U.S. dollars using eXcellent Financial Functions, specify the currency used by this restaurant. The desired currency must first be defined in Currencies.
Consolidation Entity From the drop-down list, select the consolidation entity. The consolidation entity is the one that reports in U.S. dollars. Only Accounting Entities flagged to be consolidation entities will be displayed.
