I made a mistake in setting up the general ledger and subledger. How can I fix this?

If you have made some mistakes while setting up the general ledger and sub-ledger,
there are a few options you can follow to rectify the situation. For example, if you
accidentally set up a sub-ledger when you meant to set up a general ledger or if you
tagged another ledger as a general ledger in sub-ledger master in BUSY, you can follow
the steps below:
Option 1: If any transactions have been entered in a master in which sub-ledger is used,
you cannot edit it. In this case, you need to create a new account master for
a small instance and transfer the data of the party (in which you want to change the
ledger type of the sub-ledger account) into that account from the merge master option.
Here are the steps to do it:
- Go to the Administration menu
- Click on Bulk Updation
- Click on Merge Master option
- Click on the Account option
- Define the master (in which you want to change the ledger type of the sub-ledger
account) into the source option and another newly created master in the target option
- Merge the data
After merging the data, all the data will go into the new master, and you can edit the
existing one. Once you have made the necessary changes, you can use the same
option to revert it back.
