General ledger

For organisation admins · ~2 min read

Settings → Accounting → General Ledger is your chart of accounts in BUZ. These codes are what transactions post against and what you map to Xero/MYOB.

Figure 1 — editing a GL account. (1) The Code is fixed once created. (2) Account Type and BAS Code classify it for reporting. (3) The Deactivated toggle retires an account without deleting it.

1. Add an account (or ✎ to edit).
2. Set its Description, Account Type, BAS Code and Sort Order.
3. To retire one, switch Deactivated on rather than deleting.
4. Save.

Codes are permanent

A GL Code can’t be changed after the account is created — it’s what transactions reference. Create a new account if you need a different code, and deactivate the old one.
