Chart of accounts
Each general ledger is set up according to a chart of accounts. The chart
of accounts contains the definitions of all G/L accounts in an ordered form.
The definition consist mainly of the account number, account name, and
the type of G/L account, that is, whether the account is a P&L-type
account or a balance-sheet-type account.
Account groups are used to organize and manage a large number of G/L
accounts. Whenever a new G/L account is created, an account group must
be specified for it.
Reconciliation accounts connect subsidiary ledgers with the general ledger
in real time. This means that a posting to a subsidiary ledger posts to the
corresponding reconciliation account in the general ledger at the same
time.

or credit. One transaction figure for debit one transaction figure for credit
are always kept for each account in the SAP system. The financial
 statement for the company code are calculated using these transaction
figures.
