Account Global Guide

The Account Global document is similar to the Account document, however it is used to assign identical attributes to multiple accounts on a single document. The Account Global Document is recommended for making simple modifications to a single account, or multiple accounts, as it has a simplified and expedited workflow.

In order to create an Account Global eDoc users must have the Chart of Accounts Maintenance User Role, which can be granted by Department Security Administrators (DSAs) in KSAMS.

Using the Account Global Document:

In KFS, select the Chart of Accounts portlet and click on the Account Global link.

In the Document Overview tab, enter a Description and Explanation.

The Account Global Document has two sections to fill out:

1. The Global Account Maintenance tab to select the attributes you'd like to apply to the accounts selected.
2. The List of Accounts section to select the accounts you would like to apply the attributes changes to.

Global Account Maintenance
