Use the Duplicate Account Setup program to create GL account numbers for a new branch and/or department.
Account numbers may be created in G/L#, alpha, or account type order. You can also determine the branch and/or department to create from and the new branch and/or department to create.
The program creates new account numbers in the account file based on the parameters selected by the user. The description, alpha sort, type, and summary management type are created for the new accounts using the information in the from account number. No account balances are created; i.e., they are initially set to zero.
To access this program, click General Ledger> File Maintenances>Duplicate Account Setup.
