Hello Supriya,

You can a new create G/L accounts by using a G/L account master records as a reference. You can copy the G/L account master records from this reference company code and edit the data in your target company code before creating the master records.

When editing the copied G/L account master records, you can easily change the account numbers and names. To make additional changes to the G/L account master records, you can use the functions available for collective and individual processing.

You can limit the number of accounts to be copied by entering a number range.

The G/L account master records copied are displayed in a table. You can change the account number and name and can save the changes in the table without saving the G/L accounts.

The G/L accounts are only saved when you explicitly save them.

You can create G/L accounts.You can check to see if the table contains accounts without a name or with identical account numbers. You can use the account assignment of the accounts copied.

Activities

You can find the function for creating G/L accounts with reference in Financial Accounting Customizing under General Ledger Accounting->G/L Accounts -> Master Data->G/L Account Creation->Create G/L Accounts with Reference.

Hope this solves your query. Pleasae assign points and close the thread.

Hi,

- use this in FS00

- when you want to create a GL account you have 2 ways,

create is independently (maintain all mandatory fields manually) or

copy an existing GL account in same or a different ccode (new account created on basis of reference GL account specified. you can change if required or save it). this is referred to as Copy GL account with reference.
