Great Plains Account String Format | Account string built by Projector for GP. Typically this is in the form {0}-{1}. There is some extended functionality with these shortcodes that allow you to splice off certain sections of characters. You use these features if you need to match a more complex Chart of Accounts structure. Start at Character X {0:2} - Place a colon and a number to start at a specific character. In this example the value would be everything from the third character in the cost center name onwards. Start at Character X for Length L {0:2,4} - Place a comma and a number for the length to get. In this example the value would be the first four characters after the third characters. As a complex example, let's say our chart of accounts structure is: Department - Account - CostCenter (xx-xxxx-xx) In this case, notice how the Account number is smushed between the Department and Cost Center. The Department and Cost Center values are both going to come from the {0} shortcode. We will use the string manipulators above to grab the portion that we need. Our base format is: {0}-{1}-{0} We then grab the first three digits of the {0} shortcode to populate the department: {0:0,3}-{1}-{0} Finally, we grab the remaining characters in the {0} shortcode to populate the Cost Center. {0:0,3}-{1}-{0:3} |

You can change these values, but their formats were specifically chosen to make account reconciliations between Projector and Business Central faster. If you ever require our consulting team to go in and do an audit on your books, it may take longer if these standard settings are changed. If you do make changes, the information before the first semi-colon should try and stay a fixed width, for instance 80 characters. That is why we have padding spaces before the first semi-colon AND why we use a string formatter, {2:D10}, to force transaction numbers to be ten digits. Information after that semi-colon you can feel more free to edit.
