I would like the department to default to blank after keying in an account and pressing the tab key when entering an invoice (or Cash Invoice manual check), unless there is a default department assigned in the vendor master record. I am talking about keying in an account, not using the finder.

Once they tab past the department field, the system would continue to react as it does now, depending on the "Validate ledger account" setting in Company Profile.

It would also be nice if in the vendor master record, one can enter an account and leave the department blank, or vice versa, even though there is no such account-department in the chart of accounts. But this is not my major concern.

Again, my major concern is to lessen the odds that a user will leave an unintended department in when entering an invoice.
