Statement Accounts (tffst1520m000)

Use this session to create and maintain the financial statement accounts.

For a financial statement, accounts are defined to represent the items that must be reported on a financial report. For example, if you want to create a balance sheet, the balance sheet items are defined as statement accounts.

Similar to the ledger account setup, you can link statement accounts to parents to create multilevel parent-child structures (maximum of 99 levels). At the lowest level (0), links are defined between the statement accounts and ledger accounts or dimensions.
