Managing General Ledger Accounts‍ 

1.  Log in to the consolidating group entity. 
2. Go to GL > General Ledger Accounts > New GL Account.

4.  After creating a new GL code, click the Refresh icon and find your newly created GL code in the code field. Against the newly created GL code, go to Actions and select Add GL A/C to Entities.
5. Select the subsidiaries you want to have the GL Code by checking them. Filters are available to assist in making your selection. Click Process. The system will confirm completion. You can verify the newly created GL code by logging in to one of the entities. An Excel log of this process is available in the Document Manager in the GL listing grid.

After creating a GL code, you can convert it into a Control Account and copy it down to a selection of subsidiaries.
