Enter the range of G/L accounts for which you want to copy balances, and then enter the From and To account codeCode that represents the file that holds G/L account balances for this year, previous years, and budgets.s for the copy.

If you want to copy G/L accounts from one account code to another without copying balances, enter N in the Transfer Account Balance field.
