There are many predefined backfills that are used to fill in index values based on entering minimum required index values. These backfills are based upon a query made to the accounting program’s master tables.
For example
The Subcontract backfill is based on a query made on the accounting system’s subcontract master table with the required input parameter index value of “subcontract number”.
If this backfill is assigned to one of the document types and the required subcontract number index value is filled in, Sage Paperless Construction can then fill out other index values that it pulls from the master table such as Job Number, Vendor Number, Subcontract Description.
Backfills allow assigned “pre-canned’ backfill operations to document types. Custom data queries can be developed by setting up custom query lists.
Important: A bridged vault must be present for these to work.
