Generating Account Numbers

Hello,

For creating a new company record, apart from doing some initial setups (available in the user guide),
CONSOLIDATION.MARK field should be set to 'N'.

Also, the branch code is a Mandatory input (SUB.DIVISION.CODE) .

The SUB.DIVISION.CODE is used for building the internal account number for inter-company accounting. This happens when Nostro Accounts are maintained in one company for use by other companies.

The internal account numbers's composition consists of the currency code from the Nostro account entry, the category code from the ACCOUNT.CLASS record INTERCO followed by the SUB.DIVISION.CODE.

This is done by the core routine INTERCO.ACCOUNTING.

Please correct me if my understanding is incorrect.

Thanks & Rgds,
Mks

I have some queries regarding account number generation on a multi company setup. In the multi company setup when generating account number does the system always require the branch code of the company as part of the account number, because when i try to generate the account number without the branch code the system is throwing an error, as INVALID ID FOR THE COMPANY, is there a way to generate sequential account numbers without having the branch code of the company as part of the account number, also avoiding duplication of account numbers from one company to another. any help appreciated.

thanks in advance

regards

thanks, i have some clarification regarding the internal account on a multi-company setup,
i get a account number (internal) as USD156000001 for BNK, but in an another environment i get the account number as USD1560000010001 WHICH means the system is adding a sequence number at the end, i am not sure which one is correct can you advice/help on this.

thanks & regards
