Changing FI General Ledger Account Master Data

You can change master data in a G/L account both at chart of accounts level and at company code level. Changes in the chart of accounts apply to the respective master record in all company codes. The following explains the prerequisites for making changes.

For most fields, changes are logged. In exceptional cases, such as for text fields, this is not necessary so the facility is not provided. For each change, the system records the time of change, the user name and the old field value. You can display these changes.
