The State of Washington requires that public schools and Educational Service Districts (ESDs) use a governmental fund-based accounting system using accounting rules defined by the state. These rules specify, by fund type and fiscal year, the general ledger account values that can be used, when a subsidiary account is required and its format, and the subsidiary values and value combinations to be used. You may also use agency-defined accounting practices to augment the state-defined rules. The accounting system provided must support both stated-defined and agency-defined accounting practices.
The Equity Dimension Value Setup screen allows you choose which values from the revenue or expenditure account string to represent in the associated equity summary account string. Dimensions 4 through 9 are represented on this screen along with each position in the dimension. You may chose any position within a dimension, or any combination of positions within a dimension, to be represented in the summary account. In addition, you have the ability to apply a rule to each dimension value mask. This rule looks at a value within a dimension in the operating accounts string to determine if the dimension value mask should be used.
