About:
Accounting Preferences let’s you apply your preferred settings for the account code analysis.
| Important! Decide on the source of accounts you want to keep. You may still change the default source however; the analysis for the accounts would start from the date when you changed the source of accounts making it difficult to make historical comparisons. |
