    Can I use IPA to automate adding an account in GL20? I have COMPANY,ACCT_UNIT,ACCOUNT & SUB_ACCOUNT coming from budget System. I use IPA to load (FB165), but sometimes the accounts are not turned on for a given Company/Acct Unit. I could do a test to see what accounts are not in the GLMASTER, but how can I add them, as the GL20 does?

      You can from GL20.2 by passing in the Company and Accounting Unit and using the position to (PT-GDT-ACCOUNT) field and an Add on LINE-FCr0

        I tried this, using the Lawson Transaction Node and choosing IF & GL20.2 form. I see the Account , Sub Account and Fcr0  fields, but where is COMPANY and ACCT UNIT?

            You can determine the fields from GL20.1 - company is GLN-COMPANY and AU is GLN-ACCT-UNIT - but you will have to edit your AGS call to include these values since the GL20.2 form accepts these from the GL20.1 form. This isn't a well known solution but any sub-form that receives header data from the primary form should be able to accept these values when you include them in the AGS call.

              Thanks. Thought I was going crazy and not finding them as part of the GL20.2. I'll have a go at it and see what I can do. Stay tuned.
