If you are consolidating general ledger account segments, you can map account segment numbers in the source company to different account segment numbers in the destination company.
Suppose you have source and destination companies with different general ledger account segments:
| Source Company | Destination Company | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Segment # | Seg Name | Segment # | Seg Name |
| 1 | ACCT | 1 | ACCT |
| 2 | DIV | 2 | DIV |
| 3 | DEPT | 3 | REGION |
| 4 | DEPT | ||
In this case, you could map segment number 3 in the source company to segment number 4 in the destination company.
When mapping account segment numbers, you specify:
- Source Segment Number. Enter or select the source segment number which you would like to map to a different segment number in the destination company.
- Target Segment Number. Enter the number of the account segment that the source segment will be mapped to in the destination company.
