Fixed Version 15.2
Description Account Categories should be the only field that is used to restrict filtering of accounts.     I have created cases in each module for this - if you see an issue please advise the module owner   Inventory always looked at categories   Fixed in GL   http://jira.irelyserver.com/browse/GL-1545   Fixed in CM   http://jira.irelyserver.com/browse/CM-596   Fixed in Purchasing   http://jira.irelyserver.com/browse/AP-916   Please create cases for any specific areas you see it as a problem         One example of this is:   (happens in 15.1) Company Location - GL Accounts tab > Cost of Goods field.   Because it checks for Account Group that is under Cost of Goods Sold. And since the Account Group is not under Cost of Goods Sold, however under the Sub group of Cost of Goods Sold, it did not show the account in the Cost of Goods field. Now if we ignore the Account Group validation and have only to validate for Account Category, it is a lot simpler and less prone for error.   !pastedImage_d35810_0.png!
