Overview
• Option 1 – Set up chart of accounts using categories that mirror the LM-2 categories
• Option 2 - You may also keep your existing chart of accounts and add the LM-2 categories for bookkeeping classifications
• Option 3 – Book to both the union accounts and LM-2 accounts and use the “LM Contra Account” to offset the double-booking
