The information provided can then be qualified by checking the vehicle stock-book master posting table which can be viewed in the Vehicle stockbooks/Miscellaneous options/ Master posting table option. The column entitled S contains account status codes. If one of the status codes provided by the vehicle admin manager appears in the master posting table, notify the admin manager and exclude the letter from the inclusion list. Use one of the status codes in the inclusion list as the default account status code.
