Declare here the roots of the accounting classes of your chart of accounts.

Gestan is installed with the default accounting classes used in France, but they may vary depending on the country.

The pseudo-root “CA” is used to differentiate, in product accounts, what is revenue. It is necessarily a sub-account of the product account.

The default imputation for professional revenue is the one to which the payments will be allocated, if no accounting link specifies another allocation.

The principle is identical for default imputation for professional expenses, which will be used for payment of expenses.

The usual payment method will be the one pre-entered at the time of payment, if your customer's usual payment method is not specified in their file.

When an invoice is collected, the collection entry will be broken down into sub-entries, by VAT rate and allocation. The Do not automatically ventilate box is used to disable this function.

Log combos allow you to specify which log codes you use.

The Bank journal combo is grayed out when you have several professional accounts which are not cash accounts: in fact, in this case, it is each bank account which will carry a bank journal code, which can therefore be different for each account. The 1 button displays the list of bank accounts.

This tab allows you to enter certain specific plan accounts, necessary for the XIMPORT export of accounting entries or the CA3 VAT declaration, the calculation of the balance, journal, income statement.

The 1 button initializes the zones with the values commonly used in France (if the accounts do not exist, they will be created in the chart of accounts).

All VAT accounts must start with the same 3 characters: for example, if your deductible VAT account is 44566, all other VAT accounts must start with 445. Exception confirming the rule, the intracom VAT account can start with d other code (to deal with the case of Guadeloupe, for example, for which this account can be a 74).
