Account Name

The Account Name files contain the names of the accounting units established on the system. There is one Account Name file for each accounting unit. Libraries that do not have multiple accounting units have only one Account Name file. The maximum length of an accounting unit name is 78 characters.

The accounting unit name appears:

• on labels when Library name is included in the serial or monographic label files in Serials System Options or Database Maintenance System Options
• on financial reports
