About G/L Accounts

See special G/L integration setup for Sage X3 G/L or Sage 100 links

This window lets you:

  • Add new accounts to the general ledger.

  • Change information for existing accounts.

  • Delete accounts which you no longer need.

  • Print the chart of accounts.

The following tabs are included on this page:

Entering an account number

You must also assign an account structure code to each new account. The account structure code verifies the account number when you enter it, and determines how the number is displayed in windows and printed on reports.

Set up segment validation rules using Segment Codes in the G/L Setup folder.
