Set nominal control account codes

If you wish to create a ledger based on the expense records, then you should enter the nominal ledger control accounts to which the amounts are to be posted. Nominal codes are constructed in the same way as they are in the System Setup module. For further details of how to enter information in the nominal code masks, please refer to the System Setup user guide.

Expenses | Expense Codes | VAT rates & contra codes

The nominal code section is in the second half of the screen.

  1. Click Change next to the item you wish to amend the account code for.

  2. Enter the nominal code to be used in the mask at the centre of the screen. The Nominal Narrative should contain the description of the code, this is used in the journal reports.

    By default, entries on the journal reports will be Summarised by code, so no detail will be shown. If you wish for employee-by-employee details, then you should check the Line per person option on the left- hand side of the screen.

    The nominal code will now be shown next to the item. Repeat so all control accounts on the screen have valid nominal code entries.

  3. Click OK to save and exit.
