3. Tasks description

The creation of a GL account follows the group GL account structure.

For any new process (instrument design) the GL account structure will first be designed with Data Management and Reporting as it would be done for the GL creation in SAP with the Process Expert of the Instrument in Accounting.

Quantum GL account will have a mirror account in SAP, hence the structure will match the one defined in the Master Chart of Accounts of SAP.

For a question of rational, the Quantum account follows the PI1PI2/PF1 PF2 (COCA) structure, and is mapped when necessary to the WP1 WP2 (Z001) structure.

As soon as the COCA account exists in SAP environment, the Quantum account can be created.

Below is described the steps to create a GL account in Quantum after all the decision process is accomplished.

Back office

Treasury Operations created a new bank account in Quantum and requests a GL account for the bank account.
