Understanding Wildcard Masks

Certain tasks allow for the input of an account wildcard to enable you to select accounts that have common numbering as part of their identification. The wildcard can use the ‘?’ and ‘-’ characters; the '?' represents a single character, and the dash '-' is a literal. For example, assume an account mask set to 000-000, as is the case with standard demo data. If you want to select all accounts that end with '1', use the wildcard mask ???-??1. The question marks stand in place of the account digits; the dash is located as expected in the mask.

From the Rounding Factor dropdown...

Select Cents to round off the budget amounts to cents (e.g., 1234.56).
Select Dollars to round off the budget amounts to dollars (e.g., 1235.00).
Select Hundreds to round off the budget amounts to the nearest hundred dollars (e.g., 1200.00).
