In MYOB Accountants Enterprise Reporter (AE Reporter) the Linked Accounts facility enables you to nominate two independent accounts from the client ledger's chart. This facility allows the nominated accounts to alternate between being debit or credit balances within the nominated report.
Any main account can be nominated, but sub codes, branch or division can not be nominated.
When creating a new ledger the default for linked accounts is 801 Cash at bank to 901 Bank Overdraft. However, you can change this under the Practice configuration menu.
To use linked accounts with AE Reporter
Open the Accounts ledger and follow the menu path Reports > Report Setup > Linked Accounts. The Linked Accounts window appears.
For the best presentation within AE Reporter, we recommend that the linked accounts are from corresponding folder categories. For example, Current Assets\Trade and Other Receivables to Current Liabilities\Trade and Other Payables.
The corresponding folders are detailed in the following table. Included in this table is an example for each category's corresponding account codes.
