What are the two digits to the right of the account number?
Those two digits normally represent the department (departments aren’t required). They track department costs, such as rent, supplies, and salaries. They are different than profit centers. Profit centers are used to track performance of different business units or divisions within the agency. Departments exist within profit centers (e.g., salaries expense for the San Diego office). However, if you will not be using departments, many agencies will use the extension to match their profit center ID (e.g. 10 is the San Diego office profit center ID, so accounts with a .10 extension are the San Diego accounts). If no such account number breakouts are needed, then use the .00 default extension on all your accounts.
