The OBOT table in SAP Business One contains information about the posting types defined in the system. Each entry in the table reflects a specific posting type that the system has created.
The OBOT table contains information such as the ID of the posting type, its name, a description of the posting type and whether the posting type is important for the system or not. Further details such as the type of posting (e.g. inventory posting, opening balance posting) and the associated Account group can also be included.
The OBOT table is closely linked to other SAP Business One modules such as the financial accounting and cost accounting. This allows the system to easily set up and manage posting types for accurate and efficient accounting. For example, the following fields can be found in the OBOT table in SAP Business One:
- Code: This field contains the code of the booking type, which serves as a unique identifier.
- Name: The name of the booking type is saved here.
- Description: A description of the booking type is stored in this field.
- Relevance: This defines whether the booking type is relevant for the system or not.
- PostingType: The type of posting is defined in this field (e.g. inventory posting, opening balance posting).
- GroupCode: The associated account group is defined here.
- BaseDocType: The type of the associated document is defined in this field (e.g. sales invoice, purchase invoice).
- UserFields: User-defined fields for the booking type can be defined here.
