Say (e.g) in Salary G/L A/c instead of giving P&L they
select Balances sheet & it is saved & in this they passed
some entry also. But now I have to Select P&L in the
Salary G/L. (Note should not create new G/L. In the same
Salary G/L I have to change) Tell me how you can change

Answer Posted / syam mahesh

We can change the Account Group for any GL Master even
after posting any values to that account but need to change
the status of the Account from B.S to P&L before doing
balance carry forward.

Procedure:
1. Block the required GL for any further posting first.
2. Go to GL Master in the change mode and change the
Account Group from Balance Sheet to Profit & Loss Account.,
if it gives you the warning message to change, then change
the warning message to error message if you have
authorisation to change.
3. Run a Program in SE38 for the changes to effect on
transactional data.
4. Now dont forget to Unblock the GL Master for postings
else you will not able to do the postings.
5. If this process happen to do at the time year-end, then
carry forward the balances to take the right effect in P&L
and B.S.

Correct me if I am wrong.
