Good morning all. I’m attempting to assist a client using GL account/subaccount restriction and having issues with it. I’m going to provide a stripped down description of what I’ve tried and I appreciate if anyone could jump in with a suggestion on how to make this work.
For sake of example, let’s say we have your basic chart of accounts using 10000-19999 for assets, 20000-39999 liabilities, 40000-49999 revenues, 50000-59999 COGS expenses, and 60000-99999 for various other categories of expenses. They also have subaccounts, so for keeping it simple lets say there’s a default 0000, and then AAAA, BBBB, and CCCC.
The client would like to restrict 0000 such that it cannot be used for accounts 40000-99999.
After reading the help file, I created two groups.
Group 1 Type A. This group had all users, every account 40000-99999, and subaccounts AAAA, BBBB, and CCCC.
Group 2 Type A inverse. All users, every account 40000-99999, and only subaccount 0000.
That seems to work fine when dealing with accounts in those ranges but I was having problems with the accounts <40000.
I created Group 3, Type A. All users, every account 10000-39999, with all four subaccounts 0000,AAAA,BBBB,CCCC.
With all of these groups enabled, I’m still finding I am getting errors with the accounts 10000-39999. Can anyone tell me what I’m doing incorrectly?
