Change a ledger account number
You can always change a ledger account number. Any change is also applied to the entries.
Note:
When you change an account number, you also change the ledger's structure. Ledger accounts in the account overviews are sorted by account number. Check the structure of your account levels: they determine the structure of the balance sheet and the profit and loss account.
Example:
The ledger accounts Omzet hardware (8010), Omzet software (8020) and Omzet Games (8030) fall under account level 8099 (Total turnover).
You change account number 8030 to 8130. As a result this account no longer falls under account level 8099, and instead comes under account level 8199 (Accessories sales).
To change an account number:
- Go to: Financial / Ledger / Ledger account.
- Select the ledger account.
- Click on the action: Change account number.
- Enter the new account number.
- Click on: Finish.
