Gary,
You need to define your new Chart of Accounts and then either:
a) Convert transactions from the old structure to the new structure using
the standard GL interface files (you'll need to create a bespoke program to
populate the interface files, mapping an old account number to a new one);
or
b) Enter opening balances manually if you're not bothered about converting
transaction history.
You could create a new GL company to convert into, or develop CL programs
to:
a) Run the conversion to populate the interface files.
b) Clear out the company you want to convert.
c) Copy in the new Chart of Accounts.
d) Run the interface file validation and update in the same company.
Then of course you also need to take care of converting all those GL account
numbers in various master files.
You have a fair amount of work there, not least in thoroughly testing the
whole thing.
Regards,
Ian Owen

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
