RE: GL Chart Of Accounts

In the past, I've converted the chart of accounts for several customers by
using a different company number.  Set up the new company and add the
accounts.  Go to the other modules and change the GL company on the company
profiles.  Once completed, change security to only allow viewing of the new
company.

If you want to convert history, create interface files (FLPI0, I1, and I2)
from the FLP008 records.  You can also enter journals if you only want
month-end balances.

Just remember, the GL accounts are on many files and must be converted
(suppliers, customers, items, etc.).

A comprehensive test plan is an absolute must.  This process is a lot of
work and can easily cause problems.

Subject: GL Chart Of Accounts




For various reasons, best known to the Finance Department, it has been
decided
that after five years of using System21 we would now like to change our
Chart of
Accounts structure.

Currently we have a structure of 3-2-2-5

we are now wanting a structure of 3-3-3-3

Is it possible to change the structure??

Any advice appreciated.

TIA,
Gary
