Documentation

Definition

Contains a number from one to six digits that corresponds with the different levels of an organizational structure (one being the highest level, and all subsequent numbers representing lower levels).

The level number determines how much information is SHOWN in an inquiry/report.

This field does NOT, however, limit how much of a structure is actually PROCESSED, when you run reports.

Use

Enter the appropriate level number.

NOTE: If you do not wish to limit report documentation, leave the field blank.

Example

If the field contains a 3, only the top 3 levels of the structure are documented in an inquiry/report.

Supplementary Documentation - DEPTH 3000
