Manual Creation: With the two step method, the chart of accounts segment is created separately from the company code segment. This allows for creating the GL account only in the chart of accounts or in multiple company codes. Use the one step method to create a GL account in a specified company code. Repeat step 2 of the two step method, create in the company code segment, to create the GL account in additional company codes as needed. Creating GL accounts by copying : To create an account that has the same properties as an existing account, i.e. another cash account, create the new account with reference to the existing account and change the account title accordingly. If all of the GL accounts in an existing company code are required in another company code, the entire company code segment can be copied to the new company code. The entire chart of accounts can be copied into a new chart of accounts as well, including account determination. The financial statement version can also be copied. Data Transfer: To reduce data entry, programs like RFBISA00, Batch Input Interface for G/L Account Master Data, can be modified by the ABAP team to accommodate uploading new chart of accounts information.
