IC04


IC04.1 - General Ledger Category

**Form Purpose
Use General Ledger Category (IC04.1) to define general ledger categories by
company location.

Before you can set up general ledger categories, you must define general
ledger accounts in the General Ledger application. You must assign a general
ledger category to each item location record you set up in IC12.1 (Item
Location) or IC10.2 (Item Master and Location).

General ledger categories specify the inventory and offset general ledger
accounts to post inventory transactions such as issues, receipts, and
adjustments. If multiple company locations exist, a unique general ledger
category can be set up for each location.

**More Information
You can override general ledger offset accounts when transactions are
processed using reason codes defined in IC07.1 (Reason Codes) or by typing a
new account number.
