Viewing Chart of Accounts

Propertyware's Chart of Accounts, viewable only by your Propertyware Administrator, includes several standard account types used by property managers to track income, expenses, liabilities, and more. The Chart of Accounts serves as the primary integration point for third party accounting applications such as QuickBooks.

To view the Chart of Accounts:

Click the Setup link from the top right corner of any page of the application.
Click the Chart of Accounts link from the Customize menu in the left side bar. Only users with Administrator privileges can see this menu.
Displayed in the Chart of Account page is a list of all your accounts, whether bank, asset, liability, income or expense accounts, in table format with the column headers listed below. Although certain account types may not be deleted, as the delete function will appear disabled, you may opt to not use them at all.
