Hi VidhyaDhar

In some transaction codes you can use the alternative account number to post to its operational account equivalent.
You use the matchcode in the field e.g. If you enter =A.nnnnnn where nnnnnn is the alternative account number, it will substitute the operational account number. I do not think this works in FB50 for example but in F-02 it works.

Regards,

Paul

Hi Nely

As far as my knowledge goes, an alternative account number forms part of a country chart of accounts which is used for country-specific reporting requirement. Usually the country chart of accounts turns out to be a subset of your operational chart of accounts and comprises the alternative account number assigned in the company code segment of your operative chart of accounts. This country chart of accounts is used for reporting purposes only and I have not heard of the alternative account number being used for transaction postings. Even special G L indicators have their related G L accounts determined from the operating chart of accounts only. Such be the case, I am not too sure if the alternative account number is capable of being manually picked during transactions.

Usually you ensure that the alternative account number field is left blank if it is not required for country specific reporting and this is done while you create the basic G L master record in the operating chart of accounts. Am not too sure if deletion of the alternative account in the G L Master will be possible at all since in the IMG you would have mapped the country chart of accounts which makes deletion of alternative account impossible if the number is available in the country chart of accounts.
