Account Sub Category

How it is used​

  • The Balance Sheet groups by nature, then category, then sub-category, then account.
  • The Income Statement shows sub-categories inside its categories.
  • The Cash Flow Statement treats the sub-categories listed on the Cash flow tab of General Ledger Setting as cash.

If something looks wrong​

  • "Special Duties - Line ID: ... is duplicated with Line ID: ..." Two lines carry the same sub-category.
  • "Account Sub Category with the same name already exists" Use another name.
