    Why care: Availability and publication flags affect future use without erasing history. Prefer disabling an obsolete setup record when existing transactions still refer to it.

  1. Select the business context first.

  2. Enter the required identifying and operational values: Code, Name, and Statement Type.

  3. Review Statement Type, and Active deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

  4. Save the Consolidated Account, then confirm Code, and Name on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Verify this Consolidated Account in Adjustment Lines, Adjustment Snapshot Lines, General Ledger Snapshot Lines, and General Ledger Snapshot States, plus the remaining screen fields before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate.

Delete a Consolidated Account

Delete this Consolidated Account only if it is an unused duplicate or setup mistake. Once other records refer to it, preserve that history and make the value inactive when the screen provides that option.

If the record is merely obsolete, use Active to remove it from future use while preserving existing references.

Edit an existing Consolidated Account

Edit this Consolidated Account to keep the same real-world party, item, location, or resource accurate. Do not repurpose it for a different entity after activity is attached.

  1. Open the detail page. Compare Code, and Name with the supporting document or approved request.

  2. Recheck Statement Type, and Active. These values are most likely to change store mapping and consolidated statement results.

  3. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the Consolidated Account now appears under the expected Statement Type, and Active.

After the change: Verify this Consolidated Account in Adjustment Lines, Adjustment Snapshot Lines, General Ledger Snapshot Lines, and General Ledger Snapshot States, plus the remaining screen fields before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate.

Common mistakes and troubleshooting

  • The record will not save: Recheck Code, Name, and Statement Type and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

  • The record saved but is not available where expected: Recheck Statement Type, and Active, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.

  • The values look right but the result is wrong: Compare this page.Consolidated Account with the source document or approved setup decision, then check the downstream screen where it is used.
