The AFF has the following segment qualifiers:

Cost center segment

Natural account segment
Balancing segment
Intercompany segment
Management segment
Secondary tracking segment
Each segment qualifier is used by the system to process data in each case for a
specific purpose.
The balancing segment is used by the system to ensure that a balanced trial balance
report can be generated for a value in that segment.
The natural account segment has to be identified with additional tracking segments
to identifyasset, income, expense, liability, and so on. Then the system will also
automatically rollover the net balance of income and expense balances to the retained
earnings account and zero out the balances when a new fiscal year begins as defined
in the system.
