If you have already subscribed or are testing Pesaris, you will find a collection of accounts.
This is usually an extract from the SME Switzerland chart of accounts. However, most companies do not need as many accounts or want to make individual adjustments to existing accounts.
IMPORTANT:
If you adjust or delete accounts, this always applies to the fiscal year you have selected. For example, you can make changes to your chart of accounts in the current fiscal year without affecting older fiscal years.

1. Make adjustments to existing accounts
 | Click this icon to view more information about an account or make adjustments to the account settings. |
On the "General" tab, you can adjust the basic settings of the account, such as the account number or name.
The following options are available on the "Options" tab":
| No manual postings possible | This locks the account for manual postings. In this case, only system postings or postings from interfaces to this account can be made. This setting is useful if, for example, postings are made to an account via interfaces (wage module, BEBU, customers/vendors, etc.) and you want to prevent manual postings from being made. |
| Confirmation required before booking | Activate this option if you want a confirmation from the user before posting to this account. This is ideal for the user to get increased attention from the user when booking on a special account. This enables you to avoid incorrect postings to accounts that are only posted to very rarely. |
| Group by month | This setting only affects the account sheet evaluation. For grouped accounts, a summary of postings per month is displayed in the account sheet evaluation instead of the individual postings. This is ideal for accounts with a large number of transactions. You can define the standard value here, but you can override it before generating the evaluation. Cost center mandatory |
| VAT mandatory | If you are subject to VAT, you can specify here that the required account must always be posted with a VAT code. This is ideal for accounts that are to be posted without exception with VAT codes. This avoids missing VAT postings. |
| Balance not carried forward to next year | Caution: This setting is rarely required. If you are unsure, ask your trustee or contact support@pesaris.com. The option only affects accounts of type "Assets" or "Liabilities". Accounts in the income statement are automatically carried forward with a balance of 0.00 to the next year. |
The "Balance" tab shows the balance from the previous year, the opening balance and the closing balance. If you have to start freshly with Pesaris FIBU and transfer balances from another system, you can enter the corresponding balances here. The "Foreign currency" column is only displayed if a foreign currency is stored in the account (--> tab "General").
2. Mass mutations or rapid switching between accounts
You can quickly move from one account to the next by clicking on the arrows < or > (see figure). This allows you to check the settings of the various accounts very quickly and make changes / mass mutations as required.
When you change the account, a message appears to indicate whether you want to save the changes. Click on "Remember settings"if you don't want to be asked every time.
3. Delete an account
Select the account you want to delete and open the drop-down menu (see figure above). Select the "Delete"command from the options.
