 Example: Defining the Screen Layout

For example, you can group all bank accounts, postal giro accounts, and cash in the account group FIN. for "liquid funds".

For some of the fields, you determine the following field status in the account group:

  • Reconciliation account

These accounts will never be used as reconciliation accounts, that is, this field has no relevance for this account group and can thus be suppressed.

  • Post automatically only and Supplement automatic postings

These accounts are posted to directly, that is, the fields can be suppressed.

  • Cash flow

Each G/L account in this account group is relevant to cash flow. The system requires this information, for example, to determine the payment amount from a customer for a payment confirmation. This field thus requires an entry.

This figure shows the screen layout for creating G/L account in the company code-specific area for the field groups "Account control", "Document entry", Bank/financial details" with all the fields and the screen layout for the account group "Liquid funds account".
