Amend a control account
Description

Control Accounts are the nominal codes that Sage Accounts uses when it makes automatic double-entry postings.

For example, when you post a sales invoice, the value of the invoice posts automatically to the Debtors Control nominal code.

The installation sets up the Control Accounts by default, but you can amend them if needed.

NOTE: To be able to amend most of the Control Accounts, there must be no transactions attached to the current Control Account.
