Enter the Ledger Account that you wish to use for this purpose. If the Ledger Account has not already been created directly through the General Ledger, System Five will create the Account for you when you click the [Create Ledger Number] button.

Clicking [Create Ledger Number] when the account already exists will display a message similar to the one shown in Figure 2:

Therefore, you can safely click [Create Ledger Number] to ensure that the required Ledger Account exists.
