How to Create a Split Account (Distribution Account)

A split account is created following the same principle as a regular expense account. However, note that it is not possible to post directly to a split account. The account is used solely to distribute an amount from a single transaction across multiple different expense accounts.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Navigation: Go to ADMINISTRATOR -> CHART OF ACCOUNTS -> EXPENSE ACCOUNTS.
2. Click on Create Split Account.
   
3. Fill in account information:
   
   • Account Name: Enter the name of the account as it should appear to users.
   • Subaccounts: Select the expense accounts that should by default make up the distribution.
4. Click Save once the information is correctly entered.

Special Points to Note:

• Flexibility during approval: You can link up to 6 predefined subaccounts to a split account. However, the finance employee always has the option to manually select other accounts during processing if needed.
• Limitation: Note that the use of split accounts is not supported in the Acubiz app.
