Mapping multiple bookkeeping system codes to one AP code

Within the 3rd party bookkeeping software you may have, for example, multiple nominal accounts for travel expenses. You could have a generic travel account plus some more specific ones like overseas travel, air travel, etc.

In CCH Accounts Production you may prefer to allocate these all to a single travel account rather than try to recreate a matching chart of accounts for each client.

When using the Sync with Open Integration option within CCH Accounts Production, the default nominal account for travel will map automatically but the bespoke travel accounts will not. You will therefore be presented with the following nominal mapping screen so that you can also allocate the bespoke nominal accounts to the right place within CCH Accounts Production. 

In this example, code 495 is taken from the 3rd party bookkeeping product and we have mapped it to code 3510 within CCH Accounts Production.

Once you have saved this mapping, the codes become linked and you will not have to remap them again either for bringing data down from the 3rd party product into Open Integration or for syncing data back to the 3rd party product from Open Integration.
