GL Codes and Time Billing

We have just started importing time billing charges into MYOB - they come in matching the Activity ID's I have set up in the system. 

 

However for one client only we need to change the GL Code for their sales, so that we can clearly see their sales separately on our profit and loss reports.

 

Unfortunately when you look at an imported time billing order or invoice you cannot see the GL Code on that screen to just adjust it to the other code. Not like when you look at other layout options... You can only see the GL code when you click on the activity ID itself. However I dont want to change that activity ID code in the back end, as the remainder of our customers need to go to the main GL Code. 

 

How can I tackle this issue. This is really making me nervous. Please dont tell me we will have to have a whole other set of activity ID's just for that one client that has the different default account. We have hundreds and hundreds of activity ID's.

    Hi @LisaBSF,

     

    Regarding the GL code that you want to change, I highly recommend speaking with your accountant before making any changes. You can also check the link here for more information. If there's anything you need assistance with, feel free to reach out.

     

    Best regards,

    Doreen

    Thanks Doreen. I am not actually 'changing' a GL Code from what is already set up. What I am trying to do is import dockets for all clients but for one particular client I need the activity id income to be applied to a different income account to all the other clients. This is how we currently charge but the invoices are created manually through the professional layout, we are now using the time billing layout and there is no column on the screen that shows the GL code so that you can change it.
