Definition

When you define the balance sheet and P+L structures, then accounts are assigned to line items within the balance sheet and P+L. This assignment is made either via the G/L account number or alternatively via the group account number given in this field.

Use

The usage of the group account number offers the advantage that by specifying a number, a group of accounts can be assigned immediately to the balance sheet or P+L item.

If a balance sheet or P+L structure is to be defined which is to be used for several company codes with different charts of accounts, the problems which are created as a result can be avoided by using the group account number so that:

  • accounts with the same meaning have different account numbers
  • accounts with the same account number have different meanings and, if necessary, are to be assigned to different line items in the balance sheet or P+L.
