Don't see departments under System menu
by Neil Aggarwal 21 Aug '26

21 Aug '26

Hello all: According to the manual, I should see a Departments option under the System menu: https://book.ledgersmb.org/dev/split-book/sec-company-config-system-menu.h tml#subsec-company-config-departments But, when I look at my system menu, I do not see that option, see attached. Any idea why it is missing? Thank you, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, (972) 834-1565, https://propfinancing.com We offer 30 year loans on single family houses!

> Some parts of the book are really old and have not been revisited lately. > What Are you trying to do? I am currently using QuickBooks. I am trying to see if LedgerSMB will replace it. I am running a mortgage company. In QuickBooks, I keep each property as a Class. Then, when I run a Profit and Loss by Class report, I get the income and expenses with each property in its own column and the total for the business in a column at the end. Ideally, I would also like to be able to run a Balance Sheet by Class, but QuickBooks does not have that.
