Missing accounts

To add accounts that are missing, use the options under Accounts on the TASKS bar. These newly-added accounts can also be edited or deleted as necessary.

Notes about adding missing accounts

Header and detail accounts can be added to the ledger. Header accounts group related detail. Accounts help organise the accounts list.
There are eight account classifications.
Header accounts must be assigned an account classification.
Detail accounts must be assigned an account classification and an account type.
Each account must be represented by a unique five digit number. The first digit of the account code indicates the account’s classification.

Added accounts are displayed in italics in the chart of accounts. Header accounts are displayed in bold italics. When workpaper preparation has been completed, these newly-added accounts are posted to the ledger.

UI Text Box

type	note

After the account has been added, only the account name can be edited. If other fields require editing, such as the account type or account number, you have to delete and add the account again with the correct information.
