Change the GL Codes ?!$

I've just finished a conversation with out controller.

He is getting a new accounting system and would like to change the GL codes.

Has anyone done this before?  I'd love to get some pointers.

Tables you changed, Reports and Procedures you test.

    Hi Tom
    SOH went through a complete chart of accounts restructure a few years ago. Peter Nelson was heavily involved in flowing the changes through into a range of systems, including Tess, so he might have some useful hints - assuming the scars have faded to the point where he can talk about it again...
    Actually the very best thing we did as part of that project was to put together a little intranet app called "MyCOA" which let users search for new codes in a variety of ways - eg putting in an old code that they new and returning matching new codes, using a search term to return matches in both the old and new codes, etc - plus supplying scope notes to explain what the new code was supposed (and not supposed) to be used for. Highly recommended for pain-reduction.
