Group Type

From the drop-down list of all standard account categories, select the category that applies to the account group. The category that you select determines the placement of the group on general ledger reports if you choose Account Groups as a report sorting/grouping option.

If you also use summary account groups, the group type for the summary account group overrides this setting. This occurs after you use the account group tables to associate the summary groups with detail groups.
