G/L Account Number (General Ledger) 

The account number is the G/L account you are posting this line item to, such as 113109, a clearing account for incoming payments. If you do not know the number of the G/L account, you can search for it using search help. The system stores certain fields from the G/L account master record in a matchcode. You can search for an account using those fields.

If you want to search for a number, place the cursor in the Account number field. Display the possible entries to get an overview of the available search fields.

For more information about using matchcodes to search for account numbers, see Working with R/3 System in the R/3 Library and the General Ledger Implementation Guide.
