In this activity you define the accounts you want to create (target accounts) and maintain the assignment between these accounts and the existing accounts you are using as a reference.

During the copy procedure, the system transfers all the settings from a reference account to the account to be created. If the chart of accounts section in the account you are creating does not yet exist, you can change the reference account's number and texts. Otherwise, all other settings in the reference account are transferred to the target account.

Recommendation

Use this function if you want to create a new chart of accounts and company code and want to copy accounts from a chart delivered with the standard system and assign new account numbers and names to them.

Activities

  1. Create a new chart of accounts and, if necessary, a new company code.

    You make these settings in the activities Create Company Code and Maintain Chart of Accounts List.

    If you still want to use accounts in an existing company code, you can also use this company code.

    Afterwards, you must assign your new chart of accounts to the (new) company code.

  2. Define your new G/L accounts. To do this, you first specify the company code for which you want to create new G/L accounts and a reference company code (company code which contains the reference accounts). In the detail screen, you can set up your G/L accounts using the references. In doing this, you save the following information:

    • Reference account number
    • Number of the new G/L account to be created
    • Text for the new G/L account to be created
    • You can enter the G/L account short and long text individually. To copy the long text from the short text, choose Settings -> Long text -> Copy from short text. The short text is then transferred for each entry. To copy texts from the reference account, choose Settings -> Texts -> Copy from reference. When saving the entries, the system informs you of any long texts which are not maintained and can automatically maintain them if necessary.

Note

Entries which were already used to create new accounts are indicated by the system and no longer included during the copy procedures. You can, however, copy these entries under a new account number. To do this, choose Edit -> Copy as.

If you have not processed the batch input session generated for creating the new G/L accounts, you can release the entries in it for further processing by choosing Edit -> Reactivate.
