Chart of accounts error - 'The following ranges overlap onto each other'
Description
Cause

When you check your chart of accounts, you may get the  error 'The following ranges overlap onto each other:' with a list of ranges. This means that either the low or the high number of the category account ranges falls within another range, for example:

Category Account Low High
Product Sales 4010 4099
Export Sales 4080 4100 - This overlaps the first category account range.
Import Sales 4000 4050 - This overlaps the first category account range.

Resolution

To correct this, amend the ranges so that each nominal code is included in one range only, for example:

Category AccountLowHigh
Product Sales40104079
Export Sales40804100
Import Sales40004009
