What are the main differences between the following fields?:
glAccountClassId (E.g. "CASH_EQUIVALENT") glAccountTypeId (E.g. "CURRENT_ASSET") glResourceTypeId (E.g. "MONEY") I've read through the ManagerReferenceAccounting, but I'm still a bit confused. Many thanks in advance, Chris |
On more detailed investigation, the ResourceTypes in seed data are:
MONEY RAW_MATERIALS LABOR SERVICES FINISHED_GOODS DELIVERED_GOODS These obviously describe the type of resource. However, the glAccountClass and glAccountType seem to be modeling very similar concepts: glAccountType ACCOUNTS_RECEIVABLE ACCOUNTS_PAYABLE BALANCE_ACCOUNT BANK_STLMNT_ACCOUNT UNDEPOSITED_RECEIPTS MRCH_STLMNT_ACCOUNT CURRENT_ASSET FIXED_ASSET FIXED_ASSET_MAINT OTHER_ASSET CREDIT_CARD CURRENT_LIABILITY ... glAccountClass: DEBIT CREDIT RESOURCE ASSET CURRENT_ASSET CASH_EQUIVALENT INVENTORY_ASSET LONGTERM_ASSET LIABILITY CURRENT_LIABILITY ... What are the differences between these concepts? Why are two entities required, and not just the one? Many thanks in advance, Chris

I think I may have found the answer:

Hi Jacques, thanks for the response. This question seems like it should be in the FAQ?

Thanks again for your help Jacques!
When I fully understand the concepts, I will put together a page explaining the differences.

Hi,
I am also trying to get the the differences between these two GLAccountTypeId and GLAccountClassId. There is no FIXED_ASSET in GLAccountClassId, where as it is present in GLAccountTypeId. So, from the reporting perspective (which is completely based on GLAccountClass), the FIXED_ASSET will not be shown at all. I think it is important to show FIXED_ASSET in the reporting. -Aswath On Fri, Sep 18, 2009 at 7:43 AM, snowc <[hidden email]> wrote: > > Thanks again for your help Jacques! > > When I fully understand the concepts, I will put together a page explaining > the differences. > > > jacques.le.roux wrote: > > > > Done > > > > Jacques > > > > From: "snowc" <[hidden email]> > >> Hi Jacques, thanks for the response.
