Aoa,
We had a similar problem, the oprational chart of account was 6 digit, the
limit in a group exausted and a new GL account was required. The normal
serial of GL accounts was A12070. We created a new GL as A1207A which was
not an ideal answer to the problem but it solved the reporting requirements.
It might be of some help to you.
Regards,
Medrar
