IV. Detail Subject to Auxiliary Accounting
Although this function is currently not supported, we explain its application scenarios and precautions for user understanding.
Application Scenarios: This function is suitable for users who previously used detail subjects for auxiliary accounting, such as detail subjects set by customers or suppliers. Using this function can facilitate accounting management.
Precautions:
- Only non-terminal and enabled subjects can be selected for conversion.
- If the sub-subjects of a subject contain quantity, foreign currency, or auxiliary accounting, conversion is not supported.
- If the sub-subjects of a subject have been used in modules such as vouchers, fixed assets, or payroll, conversion is also not supported.
- After conversion, the terminal subject name will be added as auxiliary accounting in the auxiliary accounting data, and all sub-subjects will be deleted. Voucher data will also be automatically converted to auxiliary accounting.
- Once converted, it cannot be directly restored, but the system will automatically back up the data. If restoration is needed, it can be done in "Settings" - "Backup and Restore".
V. Other Precautions
- Depending on the selected accounting standards, the default subjects and allowed operations in the system may vary. Users should manage subjects according to their actual situation.
- For subjects that have already been used, deletion or modification may not be possible. Users should confirm the usage status of the subjects before performing operations.
- If a subject has set quantity accounting, foreign currency accounting, or auxiliary accounting, please follow the system prompts for corresponding settings and input operations. Currently, quantity accounting and foreign currency accounting functions are not supported; please look forward to future updates.
VI. Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
Q: Can I freely add, delete, or modify primary subjects?
A: Primary subjects are usually preset according to accounting standards, and it is not recommended to add, delete, or modify them arbitrarily. For accounting sets under small enterprise accounting standards, adding primary subjects is not allowed; while for corporate accounting standards, although adding primary subjects is possible, it should be done cautiously to ensure compliance with accounting standards and the actual needs of the enterprise.
Q: How can I manage my subjects more effectively?
A: It is recommended to regularly review and organize subjects to ensure that the hierarchical structure of subjects is clear and reasonable. Additionally, utilizing the "Display Option" feature of subjects can simplify the subject selection process during voucher entry.
Q: When will the detail subject to auxiliary accounting function be implemented?
A: The specific implementation time for this function depends on the plans and progress of the development team. We will launch this function as soon as possible to meet user needs. In the meantime, users are advised to continue using detail subjects for accounting or consider other alternative solutions.
VII. Usage Tips
- Make Good Use of the Subject Search Function: When the subject list is long, you can use the search function to quickly locate the required subject.

- Pay Attention to Subject Balances and Transactions: Regularly check the balances and transactions of subjects to ensure data accuracy and completeness.
