Account Number

Enter a value that represents an account number. If you enter a value in the Account Number field, the system uses this account number to override the automatic accounting instructions (AAIs) that are normally associated with the pay type for all of the timecards that are created by the template. If you leave this field blank, the system uses the AAIs to determine the account number.

A value that identifies an account in the general ledger. Use one of these formats to enter account numbers:

  • Standard account number (business unit.object.subsidiary or flex format).

  • Third G/L (general ledger) number (maximum of 25 digits).

  • Account ID number. The number is eight digits long.

  • Speed code, which is a two-character code that you concatenate to the AAI item SP.

    You can then enter the code instead of an account number.

The first character of the account number indicates its format. You define the account format in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Accounting constants.
