Account descriptions and divisional reports

Updated over a month ago

When using divisional accounting, HandiLedger allows you to enter a description for each division, as well as the Master Divisional chart. The description can be the same or different.

  • Reports for the whole entity, without selecting a specific division, will use the Master Divisional chart description.

  • Reports for a specific division, will use the description assigned to the account for that division.


To edit the Chart of Account descriptions:

  1. Go to View, Chart of Accounts.

  2. On the Chart of Accounts window, select the Division.

  3. Highlight the account you wish to change, click Edit.

  4. Edit the description and click Save and Close.

Note: Only Revenue and Expense accounts can be divisionalised.
