CreateGLVariableAllocationAccount

Description

This method creates a new GL variable allocation account.

Parameters

Interfaces

• Dynamics GP
• Financials

Examples

The following C# example creates a GL variable allocation account with the key value "000-6510-00". The variable allocation account identifies the posting accounts "300-6510-00" and "400-6510-00" as distribution accounts. Each distribution account specifies the breakdown account used to determine the variable allocation amount. The Description property is set and all other properties are left as default values.
