Savings product mappings
Map payment channels and charges to GL accounts.
This is step 7 of the create wizard. It applies only when accounting is Cash or Accrual. On None, the step explains that mappings are skipped.
Each mapping is a row: something officers pick (a payment type or a charge) and the general ledger account it should post to. Add a row, choose both sides, or remove a row you do not need.
All mappings are optional. You can save without any. After save, mappings appear on the product only when at least one row exists.
Payment channels
Map an institution payment type to the savings reference (cash or bank asset) that should receive that channel.
Examples: Cash → teller cash (1120); a bank or mobile type → bank
settlement (1130). Deposits and withdrawals that use that payment type
then hit the mapped account instead of the product default savings
reference.
The list is institution payment types — not system-generated types (transfers and similar). Those exist for other operations, not cash channels. The mapping table is hidden until at least one institution type and one asset account exist.
Fees and penalties to income
Accounting already sets one income from fees account for every fee on the product and one income from penalties for every penalty. A row here overrides that default for a single charge.
- Fee to income — a fee charge to the income account it should post to. Charges with no row keep the product default.
- Penalty to income — the same override against income from penalties.
Fee rows only appear when the product has at least one attached fee; penalty rows when it has a penalty. Attach charges on the charges step first.
Add a row only when a charge needs its own account — an unmapped charge is not an error. The accounts offered are detail income accounts from Chart of accounts.
After save
You can change mappings later with Edit. GL accounts themselves are maintained under the chart of accounts. Savings products do not map write-off or charge-off reasons (loan products do).
