Financial Accounting: What is the Glossary?

This article is intended for Instructors

This feature is available only for the Financial Accounting simulation.

The Glossary tool allows instructors to essentially do two things:

1. Change the names of the Accounts used within the simulation
   

          To find out how to, read the article Using the Glossary to rename Accounts

1. Add additional information into the Statements and their explanations.
   

          To find out how to, read the article Using the Glossary to add additional information to the Statements

Any changes made will show in real-time within existing simulations, as well as any new simulations to be deployed for the same instructor later on.

Changes can be made at any time.

The Glossary is located within the Instructor Zone and will only show for Instructors who are assigned to a Financial Accounting simulation.

It is recommended to make the appropriate changes before starting the simulation.
