Hi,

Have to tried making use of RapidStart Services? This has been setup in the Cronus demonstration company.

There are different ways to import this

1) You can use Rapidstart services

2) You can use XMLPORT

3) You can prepare chart of account of in excel file and paste it into the table 15 by opening it from developer environment.

I would suggest to use Rapidstart package rather than XMLPORT which is more easier to user

Check this www.youtube.com/watch

For XMLPORT www.youtube.com/watch

Best option would be prepare COA in excel and paste it into table no 15

Dear EddieSS ,

Also note that Importing it will be a easy task but configuaring and managing it little bit tricky ,

Be careful because cart of account will be the Heart of the system

if you miss any indent , GL no configuring , and etc. your system will become worst

I strongly recomend if you haven strong idea about to handle refer follwing few vedios

Hi Eddie,

I believe playing with the chart of Accounts is a very sensible job so doing this through XML PORT will probably increase the complexity level as you need to play with each specific columns. I will strictly suggest to use rapid-start for this.
