Accounts can be grouped using relational methods ie flagged as a member of user definable account groups – rather than the old chart of accounts numbering structure.
Account groups can be nested so hierarchical structures can be accommodated – detailed profit and loss, balance sheet and trial balance all use account group structures to display reports.
Posting to prior periods can be disabled based on transaction date to prevent prior periods being changed.
