Account Descriptions Missing After GL Exchange Import
Description
Cause

Why account descriptions are missing

Sage 100 ERP works as designed. GL Exchange imports the account description into Account Maintenance only.
Sage 100 ERP can’t determine which part of the description belongs to the Main Account or the Sub Account.
Resolution

 

This behavior is working as designed. GL Exchange automatically fills the account description in Account Maintenance

Enter account descriptions manually

  1. Open General Ledger, Setup, Main Account Maintenance or Sub Account Maintenance.
  2. Enter the account description manually.
  3. Select Accept.

Import accounts using Visual Integrator

For account imports that include descriptions, use the Visual Integrator module:
  • Import Main Accounts with the GL_MainAccount.m4t file.
  • Import Sub Accounts with the GL_SubAccount.m4t file.
Tip: See the related article, How to Import GL Accounts, for additional import guidance.
