About the HQ Liability Types Form
Use this form to set up liability types.
(Master File)
Liabilities are grouped into ‘types’ for interfacing to General Ledger and Job Cost. The GL expense account for each type is set up in PR Departments, JC Departments, and/or EM Departments. You will typically assign GL accounts to liability types when certain types of expenses or earnings need to be posted to separate GL accounts, rather than following the cost type GL account.
Each liability type can be handled differently when updating JC. For example, you might designate one liability type for taxes (100), one for benefits (200), one for insurance (300), and so on.
