Posting Classes

Form ID: (MP.PP.10.30)

On the Posting Classes form, you can group GL purposes into posting classes, which assign GL accounts and subaccounts to the GL purposes. Posting classes are assigned to employee classes on the Employee Classes (EP.20.20.00) form, so that all employees assigned to that class will have their pay items allocated as set in the Posting Class.
