Data copy to new expense account

I have created new expense account and i want the existing expense account historical data to be moved to new account. do we have any DM job for this.

  • Maybe take an alternative approach to this... rename the existing expense account to the name of the new account.  Then, if you still need the existing (old) account with no data, recreate it.  Note: this would require you to delete the newly created account before you rename the existing.

    api.data.calculate("A#Account2 = A#Account1")

    The left side of the calculation is the destination and the right side of the formula is the source. The examples in the book show you can calculate something like A#Sales =  A#Price * A#Volume
