Changing Group Account Information Step-by-Step

Note: To change information for an entire group account, each account in that group account must be individually updated.

From any screen in the IN module:
 

1. Type GAU for the Group Account Update (GAU) screen in the NEXT FUNCTION field. 
2. Type the group type in the first position of the first KEYS field. The group type can be either A (asset) or E (expense). 
3. Type the group account ID in positions two through eleven of the first KEYS field. 
4. Type the event ID in positions 12 through 14 of the first KEYS field.
    NOTE: You can also access the GAU screen from the Group Account Inquiry (GAI) screen as follows: 
      1. Type X in the blank field to the left of the account you want to inquire on. This field is referred to as a "stab" field. The "stab" field allows you to directly access the "stabbed" information on other Inventory screens. 
      2. Type GAU for the Group Account Update (GAU) screen in the NEXT FUNCTION field. 
5. Press ENTER to process the information. The Group Account Update (GAU) screen is displayed with information about the requested account. 
6. Type the changes in any of the highlighted fields. Note that the following fields are highlighted: EVENT DESCRIPTION, GL COMPANY CODE, GL ACCOUNT CODE, GL CENTER CODE. Only the highlighted information can be changed on the GAU screen. 
    Note: Press ENTER to process the change. A blank GAU screen is displayed. The NCAS has accepted the change. Each account within a group account can be similarly updated.
