When a general ledger account field is not uniquely specified, the general ledger components are merged. Generating work orders and other kinds of transactions requires choosing among component values. The product invokes a set of rules on how to handle them.
General ledger accounts are merged component by component. Defined components always supersede an undefined component. For example, if the first component of one account code is 6000 and the first component of the other account code is a placeholder (????), the merged first component is 6000.
