Account Codes

Account codes are used to determine which General Ledger accounts the information pulls from and which General Ledger accounts the information will post to when using the “Create G/L Entries”. This is also where the “Default Class when importing G/L Entries” is defined. The default class may be overridden, but the asset account, Accumulated Depreciation, and Depreciation Expense accounts always apply to assets that are given this particular Account Code.
