Accounting > Renumber general ledger

The function 'Renumber general ledger' can be started in menu Bookkeeping> Financial> Change general ledger.

When a general ledger is changed, the complete database needs to be updated which may take some time.

If the new account number does not exist it will be created with the same details as the old account number.

If the new account number already exists the two accounts will be merged, leaving the details of the existing account untouched.

The old account number will be deleted in both situations.

It is not allowed to change the number of general ledgers connected to a VAT code or a daybook.

The new number will be applied to:

–journals

–settings book and portfolio

–assets

–opposite account debtor

–opposite account creditor

–articles

–account revaluation general ledger

–account Funds participant

Note

With the import function 'Rename chart of accounts' several general ledgers can be changed in one run.
