--- title: "Analysis Account Maintenance" canonical: "https://kb.myframeworks.com.au/space/FRAM/28401460/Analysis%20Account%20Maintenance" format: markdown --- # Overview **Analysis Account Maintenance** allows you to attach an Analysis Code to a specified General Ledger account. Once an Analysis Code is attached to a General Ledger account, Frameworks tracks the transactions entered against that code in the General Ledger transaction details. You can report on each code to provide a more detailed breakdown of account activity. For example, you might have General Ledger account codes for Miscellaneous Motor Vehicle Expenses, Petrol, and Motor Vehicle Insurance. You could attach an Analysis Code for each vehicle - such as the registration number - and then report on the total expenses for a particular vehicle. An Analysis Code can be attached to multiple GL Accounts and vice versa. > ℹī¸ Whether an analysis code must be entered on journal lines for an account depends on the **GLAnalysisCodeReq** system flag. When the flag is enabled (the default), entry of an analysis code is mandatory for any account that has codes registered against it. When the flag is disabled, analysis codes are optional and users can leave the field blank or enter any valid code, regardless of account registration. This setting applies system-wide across all companies in the Frameworks instance.
