# How to configure an accounting system chart of accounts?

## This article describes how to configure your accounting system chart of accounts with The Mortgage Office®.

The Mortgage Office® integrates with 2 different providers: [**PeopleSoft**](https://help.themortgageoffice.com/knowledge/how-to-configure-an-accounting-system-chart-of-accounts#peoplesoft) and **QuickBooks**, though we offer 2 different options for integrating with QuickBooks: **[CSV](https://help.themortgageoffice.com/knowledge/how-to-configure-an-accounting-system-chart-of-accounts#CSV)** and [**IIF**](https://help.themortgageoffice.com/knowledge/how-to-configure-an-accounting-system-chart-of-accounts#IIF). 

The Accounting System Integration Configuration Assistant will help you map your Integration accounts to the appropriate categories in The Mortgage Office®.

NOTE: This article assumes that you've already set up the Accounting Integration options and have chosen an Accounting System provider. Click **[here](https://help.themortgageoffice.com/knowledge/how-to-set-up-accounting-integration-in-user-preferences?hsLang=en)** to read more. 

### To Configure the Chart of Accounts for PeopleSoft:

- Click **Tasks & Reports.**
- Under the Accounting System Integration section, click **Configure Chart of Accounts.**

NOTES:

- The PeopleSoft Chart of Accounts (COA) structure uses **chartfields** (or segments) to record the financial effect (e.g., balance sheet, income statement, etc.) of each transaction.
- A ChartField always represents only one category of data, it stores many values that you use to further categorize that same data. ChartFields are designed to be configured by you to meet your specific requirements.

- Configure the **Categories** provided by The Mortgage Office® in the left column to match the correlating **Account Name** in PeopleSoft.
- Click ![OK](https://help.themortgageoffice.com/hs-fs/hubfs/TMO%20APP%20Icons/OK.png?width=69&height=28&name=OK.png) **OK** to save your changes or ![CANCEL](https://help.themortgageoffice.com/hs-fs/hubfs/TMO%20APP%20Icons/CANCEL.png?width=68&height=27&name=CANCEL.png) **Cancel** to void without saving the changes.
