Agent Registration
यह सामग्री अभी हिन्दी में उपलब्ध नहीं है।
Agent holds the reference data that transactions depend on. Getting it right once saves correcting every document that uses it.
Overview
Section titled “Overview”A agent record is created once and referenced from then on. Because transactions copy their defaults from it, a change here changes the behaviour of every future document — but never a document already posted.
Prerequisites
Section titled “Prerequisites”Before you begin
- You have the Create permission for Agent
- The classification groups you need already exist
Opening the screen
Section titled “Opening the screen”- Agents

Creating an agent
Section titled “Creating an agent”Open the Agent list
The list shows every agent record you have access to, newest first. Use the search box to check whether the record already exists before creating a duplicate.
Start a new record
Click New. Agent opens with the code field already filled from the numbering series.
Complete the required fields
Fill every field marked with a red asterisk. The Save button stays disabled until all of them are valid.
Save the record
Click Save. The record becomes available to transactions immediately — there is no separate approval step.
अपेक्षित परिणाम
The record is saved, a code is allocated, and the agent immediately appears in transaction lookups.

Frequently asked questions
Section titled “Frequently asked questions”Can I delete an agent record?
Not once it has been used on a transaction — deleting it would break the audit trail and every document that refers to it. Set Status to Inactive instead, which hides it from new transactions while keeping history intact.
Why does a agent not appear in the lookup?
Lookups list active records only. Open the record and check that Status is Active, and that its group is one your role is allowed to use.
Can two records share a name?
No. Names must be unique so that reports and lookups are unambiguous. Add a distinguishing suffix, such as a city or branch, if you genuinely have two similar records.
