In this video we are going to discuss about defining company primary ledger. Defining company primary ledger saw the last video already created three services like chat of icons currency under calendar. In this video defining that company primary ledger, what is the ledger? A ledger is a collection of three services. A ledger is a collection of three senses, but as a three senses, chat Afrikaans, currency, and calendar but these are three senses, Chart of Accounts, currency and the calendar. Chart of economies is a collection of segments in one company Chart of Accounts Minimum really quite that three segments and maximum we entered that the segments.
So, already we created our company chart of accounts that is a collection of four segments like one is a company segment, second one is a department segment, third one is a con segment and fourth one is a product segment okay and the second one is down currency currency means our function our company functional currency. So, what is the currency of our company? So, our company functional currencies INR we declared there is a INR currency because our company located in India So, we declared our functional currency of companies INR that is a currency always the company maintains one currency as functional currency. Okay, third step is calendar. The calendars are the two types in GL one is the fiscal calendar and second one is a financial calendar. Fiscal calendar means it starts from first to January ending is 31st to December it contains totally 12 periods financial calendar month starts from April 1 and ending is 31st of March next year, it is also compressing of that 12 months so you can create any one calendar already we created one calendar that is a financial calendar starts from first to January ending is 31st to December totally contents to all failures Okay, already that please pieces are completed.
Now define a company primary ledger. How to define the company primary ledger what is the purpose of this primary ledger? So before going To define a primary ledger, we needed three services already we created three services. With help of the three services we are going to define the company primary ledger. A ledger is a collection of the segment's using of this ledger, we are going to define the business transactions means business transaction means journal entries. In the GL we are going to rise different type of the journal entries.
What is a journal journalism and business transaction it comprising of the two lines, one is the debit line and second one is the credit line. If you want to raise the general capacity, we need a journal transaction details like what is a debit transaction credit line, what is the what is a company currency in which they are going to rise this gentleman we need all this information means we need all the time This is information okay After defining the three services, now assign the three C's to one object that object is nothing but a company primary ledger. Actually there are two will this be called as the company structure called as a primary ledger, but whereas in the leaven a world version we call that is as a set of books. In the in the world version we call that is as a set of books, a set of books is a collection of the thesis.
But whereas in October we call this as a primary ledger Okay, so when we have to define the ledger means within the GL module with the help of the three system we tell Papa, three sisters, that's good to login to the application. Select the data Laser responsibility and go to define that company primary ledger. So, if you want to define the ledger here, we needed three steps compulsory the ledger setup comprising of the three steps, but as a three steps, the first step is go to define a legal entity. The first step is go to define a legal entity. And the second step is define a primary ledger. And the third one is define accounting options into the primary ledger.
So these are the three steps are mandatory if you want to create your company, primary ledger. The first step is go to define a legal entity. What is the legal entity? A legal entity is a government entity It is a tax entity. We have to pay the tax according to the legal entity level. We have to pay the tax according to the legal entity level.
It's a government entity, legal entities that government entities, we have to pay the taxes according to the governmental level. For any business you take, compulsory we need one legal entity capacity we need one legal entity and maybe sometimes we can have more than one legal entities also. Maybe sometimes we can have more than one legal entities also. When we require more than one legal entities, suppose if you have multiple country operations. Suppose if You have multiple country operations suppose for example, our our company operations in India and US our company operations in Indian us okay. So, at the time we require There are two types of legal entities, one is for India operations and second is for us operations.
Why because these are the two different countries, each country Mendham they can the each country they can have a dead one practice in India, according to the Indian act, Indian Government Act we have to pay the tax to the government. That is a fixer tax and we cannot change the tax setup. The tax forms and tax numbers are given by the government. According to that norms. We have to pay the tax to the government Suppose you will compete in US according to the US government, they have to pay the taxes right. The taxes are different from one country to another country.
The taxes are different from one country to another country. Suppose if you have multiple country operations, you must have should create multiple legal entities you must and should create multiple legal entities okay. So, now, I have one company the company is in India. Now, I want to create a legal entity for India I have to pay the tax according to the Indian government. So, that's reason only I need one legal entity to pay the tax. Okay, so before going to create the primary ledger, first I need to create legal entity.
So in the GL module, we are going to define that legal entity Okay. Now what is the setup what is the setup for creating of the legal entity is the navigation is setup financials accounting Setup Manager accounting center what is the navigation for creating of the legal entity is setup financials accounting Setup Manager accounting setup compulsory one legal entity is mandatory setup can contains a three steps the first one is create accounting structure and the Define accounting options and complete accounting setup Okay. Now, so this test setup we called also called as a accounting setup the accounting setup is comprising of the three steps. The first step is legal entity defined legal entity, second one is defined primary ledger and third one is defined accounting options into the primary ledger.

Apart from India, any country you take here tasking that in number 10 means Tax Identification Number You must and should enter a unique number means each and every company a generic customer there is a unique number is the right you have to enter that number. But in India instead of asking that the number it asking the pan number. This is the most important point here. There is sometimes we are going to create a legal entity based on us country also right at the time it asking that the number here automated the field is changed when I select that territory okay apart from India any country you take it asking that the number we must should enter the ID number here suppose if it is in India it asking the pan number when I change the country name here automatically the field is also changed okay so now I'm going to change out India here.
