change GL Account for a Fund?

Hi all- we have a new Dir of Finance here at Roundabout and he wishes a Fund, created in 2012, to be given a new GL Account number.  I am concerned as we have MANY pledges and gifts to this Board Capital Campaign Fund, and am not clear on the ramifications of doing this for him.

Does anyone have any ideas on the long term ramifications (or short term) of a change like this?

Would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks,

Lise

  • We did some changing of GL Numbers a few years ago here at BAM.  We were just making all of the GL codes longer. 

     

    I think you are right to be cautious with such a change.   I would strongly recommend that you open a TASK Support ticket and discuss the change with the support team.  Then test carefully. Not just on the screen, but check reports, and paying off some of those old pledges, does this impact website….
