In the tab General, the general data of the company can be maintained.

The four flags Rating authority, Material controlling client, Contract partner and Supplier for material can be used to restrict the alternatives in a field. When these flags are not activated, the company can not be selected in different fields, which makes these fields easier to use. The flags are used in the following dialogs:

Rating authority: In the field Rating authority in the Dialog Edit program > Parental rating, you can only select companies with this flag.
Material controlling client: In the field Client in the dialog Edit program > Material controlling, you can only select companies with this flag. This dialog is only available for certain customers.
