Select General Ledger Setup menu > Sub Account Maintenance.

For new companies, you can only access Sub Account Maintenance after completing the General Ledger Setup Wizard.

Overview

Use Sub Account Maintenance to create and maintain subaccounts for each of the account segments (except the main account segment) defined in Account Structure Maintenance. The main account is always the first segment, and segments 2-10 are used for subaccounts. Subaccounts represent different values within a segment and along with the main account are the basic building blocks of the general ledger account. The combination of a main account and subaccounts creates a general ledger account.

You can enter a short description for the subaccount that is used as part of the account description, and you can select whether or not you want the subaccount to print on financial reports. You can also select whether the subaccount is active, inactive, or deleted. In addition, you can optionally define start and end dates for the subaccount that determine when postings to accounts created using the subaccount can occur.
