Account Mappings

If an integration fails because of a bad account mapping you can use this page to look up where corrections need to be made. For example, in the cost center editor.

Additional Resources

In the Topic of the Day: Accounting Overview Webinar, we talk about the Cost Center, Engagement and Expense Type Mappings (start at 51:58)

Company

See the Company Editor for more information. The company editor has two tabs. One tab shows This Company's G/L Accounts. The second shows Other Companies' G/L Accounts. These mappings are used for intercompany transactions. For instance, if an employee based in the UK travels to France to work on an engagement owned by the French company, an intercompany transaction needs to occur in order to reimburse that employee for his travel expenses. In this situation, the accounts payable transaction occurs in the UK company in Pounds and an offsetting expense transaction needs to happen in the French company in Euros. To make the transactions balance out, intercompany accounts are used.
