G/L Master File Maintenance

G/L Master File Maintenance

These programs are General Ledger aware. They produce accounting information and the billing is designed to be merged in with the IBS Accounting System. If you are already on the IBS Accounting System, then the G/L Master File will have already been set up for you. If you are not using this system, or if this system is not accessible to the current computer or network on which this program is running, then you will need to set up a chart of accounts which is applicable to your business. This chart of accounts need only contain those G/L Accounts which you are actually using. Check with your accountant before setting this up if you plan to transfer your billing information to IBS or to another accounting package.

The G/L Accounts are displayed in one of two sort-orders, By G/L Number and By Account Type, each on its own tab. A locator field is at the top of each tab.
