INVIEW™ Accounting Account Structure

Creating an Account

Creating an Subaccount or Subsubaccount

Viewing or Editing an Account

Deleting an Account

You can use INVIEW™ Accounting to track and account for postage used by departments or individuals within your organization. Your system is set up to accept a total of 74 characters for single level accounts, a total of 73 characters for an account and sub account, and a total of 72 characters for an account, subaccount, and subsubaccount.

When accounts are linked (account-subaccount, or account-subaccount- subsubaccount) they become a set and are treated as one separate account, with one account number and one password. The existing account number and password are rolled down to the subaccount when the first subaccount is created. When you create another subaccount to this account, you create another linked set of accounts with a different account number and password.

NOTE: Only the lowest level of the account hierarchy is chargeable. This means that transactions can only be posted to that account.

The following examples demonstrate some of the ways in which you can structure your accounts.

When you create a top level account, you can charge funds and pieces to that account. This is the working (chargeable) account because at this point it does not have any subordinate accounts:

Example: Account - Engineering

If you create subaccounts for the original account, they become the end links in the account chain and identify the departments where you charge to:

Examples:

Account - Engineering, Subaccount - Software Account - Engineering, Subaccount - Industrial Design

The original account now serves as an administrative account that owns and contains totals for the lower subaccounts.

If you create subsubaccounts for subaccounts, the subsubaccounts become the end links and identify the departments that are charged for postage.

Examples:

Account - Engineering, Subaccount - Software, Subsubaccount - Software Testing

Account - Engineering, Subaccount - Software, Subsubaccount - Software Design

Account - Engineering, Subaccount - Industrial Design, Subsubaccount - Graphics and Layout

Account - Engineering, Subaccount - Industrial Design, Subsubaccount - User Friendly Testing
