Unable to change secondary balancing level field in Chart of Account Segments - Fund must be deleted first

Unable to change secondary balancing level field in Chart of Account Segments - Fund must be deleted first





Description of Issue
  • User set up fund without secondary balancing level defined

  • Field can no longer be modified after adding fund

  • No accounts or transactions are tied to newly created fund

  • The secondary balancing level in General Ledger settings is set to Defined By Fund

  • User is expecting to be able to define the secondary balancing level field



Context

Chart of Account Segments



Cause
  • Secondary balancing cannot be modified and changed to another Segment once the Fund has been created

  • Secondary balancing can however be updated to NONE after the Fund has been created

  • If the segment defined needs to be updated to another segments, the Fund must be deleted and re-created with the correct information



Resolution

Since there are no accounts created for the new fund, delete the fund record from Chart of Account Segments and then re-add it using the correct secondary balancing level:

  • Search for the newly created fund

  • Click Delete in the ribbon, and then click Yes, Delete in the popup box

Now, use the Add function to recreate the Fund with secondary balancing segment
