General Ledger > Set Up GL Module Parameters > GL Module Setup

The Account Categories page allows you to customize the names of the system-predefined major account category types except for the Cash Flow type; however, you cannot leave the Category Name field blank when the category ID is assigned to account group records.

Note: If the IFRS feature was activated for the company, AccountMate will automatically populate the Account Categories page with system-defined account categories based upon the IFRS policies and standards. These account category types are different from the ones used when the IFRS feature is not activated.

To customize the names of the account categories simply double-click on a field under the Category Name column to change it to edit mode; then, enter the desired account category name for the chosen category type.
