Define account detail codes for your general ledger accounts. The degree of detail included in your account detail definition is specific to the business practices of your organization. For example, your general ledger may include the following segments: segment 1-1400-000 identifies your Organization, 1-1300-100 identifies your Accounts Receivable for Future Payments, 1-3300-000 identifies your fixed assets, etc. Create account code segments for each of these codes. You can also associate Flex SQL query codes with account codes. Flex SQL codes identify SQL query statements that are used to manipulate and validate data related to the account code segment in the database. After defining account detail codes, the codes are associated with transactions in the system at the entity level (such as purchase orders, invoices, etc) and are used to link system transactions with external accounting systems.

See Defining account details in the HxGN EAM System Administrator Guide.
