B, O, and S Fields

If you define multiple segments for the business unit, object, and subsidiary fields, the system concatenates them from left to right in ascending order based on their assigned sequence numbers. The resulting number is left-justified in the database field.

B (business unit)

Enter X to indicate that this segment of the GL account number is stored as part of the Business Unit field (MCU) in the database. For flexible account numbers, you can define up to six segments and use a total of 12 characters for the business unit.

O (object)

Enter X to indicate that this segment of the GL account number is stored as part of the Object Account field (OBJ) in the database.

For flexible account numbers, you can define up to three segments and use a total of six digits for the object account. If the object account is six digits, you should use all six digits. For example, entering 000456 is not the same as entering 456 because if you enter 456, the system enters three blank spaces to fill a six digit object.

S (subsidiary)

Enter X to indicate that this segment of the GL account number is stored as part of the Subsidiary field (SUB) in the database.

For flexible account numbers, you can define up to four segments and use a total of eight characters for the subsidiary part of the account number.
