Functions for Editing G/L Account Master Records
Use
G/L account master records consist of a chart of accounts area and a company code-specific area (see also
G/L Account Master Records). You can edit G/L account master records as follows:You have two ways to organize the editing of G/L account master records:
You can create a uniform chart of accounts for all company codes. In such a case, you create all G/L account master records in the chart of accounts in one step. Each company code can then add its own company code-specific data to the G/L account master record at a later date. Employees in the company codes are not able to edit the chart of accounts area.
You can also create the entire master record in one step, including the company code-specific area. In this case, employees in the company codes have no authorization to create a G/L account master record (neither in the chart of accounts area nor in the company code-specific area), but are able to change master records.
The employees in the various company codes edit the G/L account master records in both the chart of accounts area and in the company code-specific area. The employees can edit master records centrally in one step.
