Grid Mapping Options
You can create mappings using ranges, single elements, or wildcards.
Ranges
You can map a range of accounts, sub-accounts, cost centers, or projects to the target element in the target entity.

Example Ranges
 
Source GL Account From
Source GL Account To
Target Account
1030
1099
1100
2000
2300
2300
In line 1, all accounts from 1030 to 1099 inclusive are mapped to target account 1100.
In line 2, all accounts from 2000 to 2300 inclusive are mapped to target account 2300.
Single COA Element
You can map a single account (or sub-account, cost center, or project) to the target element. In this case, you enter the source COA element in both the Source From and Source To fields.

Single Element Mapping
 
Source GL Account From
Source GL Account To
Target Account
1030
1030
1100
2000
2000
2300
As a result of the mappings in Single Element Mapping, source account 1030 is mapped to target account 1100 in the consolidation entity, and source account 2000 is mapped to target account 2300 in the consolidation entity.
Wildcards
You can enter an asterisk (*) as a wildcard when creating COA cross-reference mappings.
When an asterisk alone is entered in the Source From field, this means “include all.” Only the Source From field can contain just an asterisk. In this case, any value specified in the Source To field is irrelevant.

Wildcard Mapping
 
Source GL Account From
Source GL Account To
Target Account
*
1030
1100
*
 
1100
In Wildcard Mapping, all accounts in the source entity are mapped to target GL account 1100 in the consolidation entity. Specifying account 1030 in the Source To field did not affect the mapping.
