You can set the control accounts for integration with the GL. The Accounts below are used as defaults for GL integration when a new Customer Group is added.

See also AR Settings - General tab.

Integrate to GL

Determines how AR integrates with the GL.

  • Summarised - integrates to the GL by producing batches that transfer totals for transaction types and Sales Group codes (by Branch and Department) (Accredo Saturn Only) from AR.
  • Detailed - integrates to the GL by producing batches that transfer individual transactions to the specified General Ledger codes.

With Detailed integration, you can drill down to access the source transaction from the GL.

GL Debtor Account

The default debtor account number on the GL balance sheet. On transfer to the GL:

  • Invoices and journals debit (increase) this account.
  • Credits and negative journals will credit (decrease) this account.
  • Receipts will credit this account by the gross transaction amount.

GL Bank Account

If CB is installed, bank transactions go to the AR Clearing Account, specified in CB settings and reversed in the CB. Receipt transactions debit the account by the net amount of the receipt. Invoices, credits and journals have no effect on this account.

GL Discount Account

For Receipt transactions this account is debited with the amount of the settlement discount allowed. Invoices, credits and journals have no effect on this account; receipts will credit the GL Debtor Account with the gross amount of the receipt, debit the GL Bank Account with the net amount of the receipt and debit the GL Discount Account with the difference (the settlement discount).

Integration between AR and the GL is performed by the creation of Transaction Batches on demand. Batches are placed in the list of unposted GL Batches, to perform the integration procedure you must post those batches.

Note: When you change Integration GL Accounts, on Save you will be prompted to apply the Integration GL Account changes to any Customer Groups that have matching GL Accounts.
