Set up credit card codes

Finance > Tables > Credit Card Codes

Establish a list of credit card codes to be used by the local education agency (LEA). The credit card code table is necessary to complete credit card functions in Finance, Purchasing, and District Administration.

Multiple credit cards can be set up for a credit card company. The account code must be a liability account (2XXX). A different account code can be used for each credit card to make it easier to verify transactions if the credit card statement does not reconcile to the transactions in ASCENDER. This account should be different from previously used liability accounts.

Credit Card Codes Table

Notes:

  • Credit card codes can be assigned to individual users on the District Administration > Maintenance > User Profiles > Purchasing Credit Cards tab.
  • All credit card account code components must exist on the Finance > Tables > Account Codes page.
  • The contra account is the credit card account from the credit card table even though it is different from the purchasing fund. This means that due to/due from accounts will be created to complete the accounting transactions.
