Using Account Entry Control 

Use

Use this to define account attributes and link them to a specific accounting category. This allows you to create more than one account per account category.

You can create a new account, differentiated by the parameters you set in account category customizing:

 

·         State

·         Entity Type

·         Product

·         Interest Type

·         Contract Type

·         Volume Type

·         Severance Tax Type

·         Marketing Cost Type

·         Property Interest

·         Affiliated Company

 

This transaction ties an account ID to an account category – differing by the available parameters that you already set up for this account category (within customizing for accounting category).

For example, it allows you to create a different account for the same account ID / account category, but based on such differentiators as entity type and product. The differentiators were already set up in the accounting category transaction in customizing.

The data that is defaulted on this screen is from Account Category Customizing (see: Creating Account Category Information).

The data on this screen will be defaulted from Account Category Customizing, and will display the account category attributes that were defined for the account ID / account category combination. 

This transaction is to be used once (for each account) to set up the data as master data.
