But remember: if you're about to setup a financial accounting structure
always involve accounting or fico experts to get the best setup. Because
they should be the owners of this.  Don't do this on a trial and error
basis in a production environment without their buy-in and support. GL
setups are intendend to last for a longer span of time.
