    Subcategories are denominated using the Parent No. field, rather than a simple subcategory field. So you have to use the parent no. field. For this reason, usually I just manually enter these in the system rather than use edit in excel or configuration packages.

    Hi, Try importing field Account Subcategory Entry No. (80, Integer). The value is in the G/L Account Category (570) table.
    G/L Account Category (570)
