Using wild cards for Map Codes

When bringing figures through to the accounts via mapping, it is possible to enter wild cards to bring through a group of mapping codes.

For example on the detailed accounts, if all office expenditure figures need to be grouped together, the mapping codes involved all begin with R12.

To bring through all items mapped to codes beginning with R12 enter R12* (* being a wild card).

The wildcards can be used in various ways. If the first segment and the last segment are constant, a ? is entered as a wildcard. For example:

R12.??.01

The ? can be used in any combination whereas the * wild card can only be used at the end as shown below:

R12*

R12.01*
