Changing the name of the COS Header account

Can I change the name of the header account 5-0000? I have removed the COS account name but now I can't put in the new name that I want. Is this possible?

    Thanks for your post. Yes you can change the name of a Header account by clicking on the account name in Chart of accounts>>type the name in the Account name field and Save. If this isn't working for you, are you getting an error message? Can you provide a screenshot of the error?

     

    Please let me know how you're going with this.

      Hi Tracey, Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately I seem to have lost the account number and the ability to click into the Header Account details. I know how to change the name on accounts once I can get into the account details. But with the COS Header 5-0000 I can access that field at all.

        That should say I CAN'T access the account details field at all.
