2. A/R Group Account Numbers
A/R groups control how the G/L balance sheet is posted (debited) when a customer
sale is updated. Each customer in the Customer Master File is assigned an A/R
group code (1-4) representing different types of customers. For example, A/R
Trade, A/R Affiliated Co., A/R Other. Then the A/R group will determine which
asset account to post as transactions are updated.
Most often when starting up the A/R system, only one A/R group is used. All
customers are assigned A/R group 1. For this example, however, all four A/R
groups are shown using the standard chart of accounts. Change if needed.

3. Cash Receipts Bank Account Numbers:
A/R cash receipts (customer payments) can be posted to one of 9 different bank
accounts (9 different G/L asset accounts). When updating a batch of cash receipts,
you will be asked to which bank number you wish to add (debit). That bank
number corresponds to the bank number found here and will debit the assigned
G/L asset account. For this example, the standard chart of accounts is used and
all bank numbers use the same G/L account. Change if needed.
