Mass Accounting Unit Addition (GL124)

Run Mass Accounting Unit Addition (GL124) to create accounting units for the run group specified. This program adds error-free records from the accounting unit template conversion file created by Acct Unit Template Conversion Load (GL123) and updated by Template Accounting Unit Maintenance (GL23.1). Once records are added, they are deleted from the accounting unit template conversion program.

If the summary accounting unit is set up correctly, you can see this accounting unit together with the subordinate accounting units. If the summary accounting unit setup is not correct, you can see this summary accounting unit only on the header of GL24.1.
