Alias Account Management

Use the Alias Account Management screen to align IntelliDealer chart of accounts entries with the account numbers used by each OEM. Accurate alias mapping is required to transmit financial data to the OEM (for example, through the CNH Financial Transmit / Bobcat Financial Transmit screen).

The listing displays accounts from the chart of accounts for your company and division. You can edit OEM alias values for those accounts; you cannot create or delete chart of accounts records on this screen. Use Account Lookup (Chart of Accounts) to maintain the chart itself, or use Alias Account Upload from Chart of Accounts to load alias mappings from a CSV file.

To open the Alias Account Management screen, use one of these paths:

  • Search Alias Account Management in the Menu Search bar

  • Navigate to Configuration > Interfaces > Bobcat > Alias Account Management

  • Navigate to Configuration > Interfaces > CNH > Alias Account Management

  • Navigate to Configuration > Interfaces > John Deere > Alias Account Management

  • Navigate to Configuration > Interfaces > Polaris > Alias Account Management

  • Navigate to Configuration > Miscellaneous > Other > Alias Account Management

Formatting CSV Files for Import

Click Import to load OEM aliases from a CSV file for the selected vendor. The first row of the file is treated as a header and is skipped. Company and division are taken from your session; they are not columns in the import file.

Imported .csv files must be formatted as follows:

Description Maximum Length Type Example
IntelliDealer Account Number 5 Character 32001
IntelliDealer Cost Center 3 Character 020
Alias Account   Character  

Example entries for the Alias field are:

Description Maximum Length Type Example
Alias Account John Deere - 9 Character 003210020
Alias Account CNH - 6 Character 522363
Alias Account Bobcat - 16 Character 85966342
Alias Account Polaris - 16 Character 48856
Alias Account Other - 16 Character 48856

Note:  The CSV layout for Alias Account Upload from Chart of Accounts is different. That upload includes company, division, account name, cost center, account number, and alias columns. See Alias Account Upload for that format.

Deere Alias

CNH Alias

Bobcat Alias

Polaris Alias

Other Alias

The account number as it appears for each OEM. Edit these values to map the chart of accounts entry to the OEM chart.

OEM columns appear based on available licensing:

  • CNH Alias requires feature 6191 (CNH Financial Data)
  • Bobcat Alias requires feature 6210 (Bobcat Financial Data)
  • Polaris Alias requires feature 6426 (Polaris Financial Transmit)
  • Deere Alias and Other Alias are always available

Use these buttons to complete your work on the Alias Account Management screen:

Button Description
Populate Deere Aliases

Updates all John Deere aliases with default values. This only updates values that do NOT already have John Deere alias values.

IntelliDealer adds a "0" digit to aliases when needed to comply with a 9-digit maximum. This logic also adds a "0" in the second (or possibly third) position of the Profit Center section of the alias.

For example:

  • Profit Center 123 generates as 1023.
  • Profit Center 307 generates as 3007.
  • Profit Center 17 generates as 107.

If the Profit Center section is blank, the system generates an entry of "0000".

Import

Opens the import dialog so you can select a vendor and a .csv file of OEM aliases. See Formatting CSV Files for Import.
