I recently changed banks and established a new asset account number for the new bank bank asset account in all accounting funds. I went into setup- accounting and changed the default asset account number. It asked if you wanted to change all the asset numbers for all modules from the old default to the new default number. I answered yes. However, when I checked the accounts payable vendor files, I found that it had only changed the default number for the first accounting fund. 1130 is the new asset account number and 1120 was the old number. It changed 01-1130 but for other accounting funds it didn't change the default. So 02-1120 , 03-1120 etc. didn't change. Had to go through and change all those individually. In repeating transactions, it also just changed the first account fund to new asset default.
Can't think of any reason this would be intentional. I posted it under general since it appears to apply all the modules. Thanks.

Re: Default Asset Acct Change
The default account number field is the full nine digit account number, not just the middle four. That major account used in other funds or with sub-accounts set up is not the default account number, so the software can't make an assumption and change all those other accounts.
Re: Default Asset Acct Change
Thanks, understand the reasoning. I just assumed that when it asked if I wanted the number changed in all modules then it would include all other accounting funds.
