TOPIC 2.5
Printing and reviewing the chart of accounts
You can view the chart of accounts on the screen or print a copy for future reference. It is a
good idea to have an up-to-date printed chart of accounts at hand, particularly if there are a
large number of accounts. Often, in a large company with many divisions and departments, a
partial chart of accounts is printed for use by data entry clerks, who do not need to know
about the chart of accounts’ structure for the entire company. In Accpac you can print
selected portions of the chart of accounts, which is very useful in this situation.
In Exercise 2.4, you will print the chart of accounts for Sample Company Ltd. In Topic 2.6,
you will add, modify, and delete accounts from the chart of accounts.
