Change Account Structure

The Change Account Structure option, which is accessed from within the Chart of Accounts in General Ledger, is used to define and change the account structure used within your database for the three basic account types (Balance Sheet Accounts, Revenue Accounts, and Expenditure Accounts).  With the Change Account Structure option, the applicable reference pieces for each account type display (based on the designated state-specific reference structure for your database) and then the order and whether or not the reference pieces are used can be defined or changed.

Note:  The Change Account Structure option is only available to users who are set up as a supervisor.  All users should be logged out of the School Accounting System when completing the Change Account Structure option.  Before posting any account structure changes, the system forces a backup to be made for precautionary purposes.
