SAP.G/L Account

1. Operating  COA: Same control area among several company codes must be assigned to same operating chart of accounts for the company codes

2. Country COA: Company codes with same COA will need to export external report based on country specific. Then you can set country-specific chart of accounts with the field "Alternative account number" inG/L
master record

3. Group COA: As a group, we need to set group chart of accounts with the field "Group Account Number" in G/L master record

4. Open item management:
Reconciliation accounts are not allowed to have this because the open items are managed on the subsidiary ledger accounts (Customers, vendors, fixed assets etc,). So switch OFF open item management in G/L master record

5. Q: Document entry, pop up message "No item category could be determined for account *** in chart of accounts ***"

    A: use this path to maintain item categories : SPRO -Financial Accounting - General
Ledger Accounting - Business transactions - document splitting - classify G/L Accounts for document splitting - here u can assign item categories

6.Line item display: Only G/L accounts which have 'Line Item Disply' check off in their
master data allow drill down
