Auto-Assignment of Groups, Types, and Classifications
Engagement automatically assigns a financial group and tax group to each account based on intelligent mapping to the account name if you selected to use the system-provided financial groups. In some cases, a group cannot be automatically assigned based on the account name. In those cases, the group is left unassigned.
Accounts that do not have a group assigned are listed at the top of the trial balance with the row outlined in red. If the group assignment is incorrect or no assignment is made, you can manually assign a group.
For consolidated engagements, the groups and sub-groups lists for the Financial trial balance are shared across the parent and all subsidiary entities. Groups are assigned at the subsidiary level. The Tax trial balance is not available in consolidated engagements currently, so tax group assignments do not apply in those engagements.
Engagement also automatically assigns an account type and classification for each account based on the financial group assigned. The financial group, type, and classification are used to automatically generate the financial statements. See Viewing Financial Statements.
You cannot add, change or delete the groups, types, and classifications provided.
