The Cross References screen allows you to convert one General Ledger account number to another. There are several cases where changing a General Ledger account number by cross referencing it to another account number may come in handy. One such case is if you are using parameter substitutions in the Autopost and your loan or deposit accounts are assigned a particular office number but you want to post transactions to a different branch number in the General Ledger. Instead of having to set up a separate Autopost Parameter for each branch, you can still utilize BR as a parameter substitution, and then set up Cross Reference records to post the General Ledger transactions to the appropriate branch number.
Accessing the Screen
The Cross References screen is accessed in CIM GOLD under GOLD Services > General Ledger. The following is an example of this screen:
GOLD Services > General Ledger > Cross References Screen

2.Click the list icon in the System field to select the system for this cross reference record. Possible choices are: O (Other) - 30; D (Deposits) - 20; or L (Loans) - 10.
3. | Enter the G/L Account Number that is to be converted to a different account number. |
4. | Enter the To Account For Debits to which debits should be cross referenced and posted when the Autopost Parameters call for the from G/L Account Number. The To Account For Debits field cannot be left blank or zero filled. |
5. | Enter the To Account For Credits to which credits should be cross referenced and posted when the Autopost Parameters call for the from G/L Account Number. The To Account For Credits field cannot be left blank or zero filled. |
6. | Click <Save Changes>. |
Note: If the General Ledger account numbers entered in the To Account For Debits or To Account For Credits fields are not valid, an error provider will be displayed next to those numbers. The account number entered in the from G/L Account Number field is not validated. Parameter substitutions cannot be used in any of the G/L account fields on the Cross References screen. As you fill in each of the sub-fields in any of the G/L account number fields with the maximum number of characters, the cursor is automatically tabbed to the next field. |
