Searching for Revenue GL Account Mappings
When a mapping is required, the system must find a suitable mapping depending on the sales account and analysis used on the sales order line. If an exact match can be found, then this mapping is used. However, because revenue GL account mappings can be set up to match against all possible sub-accounts, cost centers, and projects, an exact match is not always possible. In such cases, the system finds the best possible match using the search hierarchy in System Search Sequence for Revenue GL Account Mappings.

Note: When a revenue GL account mapping has been set up to map all analysis codes to the deferred and accrued revenue account, the analysis codes are taken from the sales account analysis defined on the revenue contract.
