Modify General Ledger Subaccount

When a new entity (agency, broker, company, employee, or vendor) is added to the system, Applied Epic automatically generates the appropriate required subaccounts. Use the Modify General Ledger Subaccount action to revise the subaccount assigned to an entity or to set up multiple entities to post to the same General Ledger account.

Before modifying the General Ledger subaccount for an entity, you should run the Status of Accounts report to verify that a balance does not exist in the current subaccount. If there is a balance, manual journal entries may be necessary to move the balance from the previous subaccount to the new subaccount.

Some entities require subaccounts to be generated for multiple General Ledger accounts. The subaccounts must be the same across all required accounts per entity. Click the links below for a list of the subaccounts generated for each type of entity.

  1. From the Broker Detail, Company Detail, Employee Detail, or Vendor Detail screen, or from the Agencies configuration screen, do one of the following:

Note: From the Locate screen, you can right click on the entity and select Modify General Ledger Subaccount.

  1. Select a Payable subaccount from the dropdown menu.

    The list populates with subaccounts for the selected entity. See Required Accounts Configuration for more information on required General Ledger accounts.
  2. Click Finish or press [Enter] to complete the workflow.

    Click Cancel or press [Esc] to close the window without changing the general ledger subaccount.
