Use Midaz Console to manage Account Types. They let you classify accounts in line with your organization’s financial structure. Each type defines the role of an account in your ledger, ensuring accurate transaction routing and reliable validation across categories. For details, refer the Account Types section of the Accounts page.

​
Enabling Account Type validation

In case you want to activate account type validation for a specific ledger, you must configure it in the .env files.
Once you have enabled the Account Type validation, the Account Type will be a mandatory field when you create a new account.
Your configuration should look like this: 
#Account Types Validation
MIDAZ_ACCOUNT_TYPE_VALIDATION_ENABLED=true
# List of <organization-id>:<ledger-id> separated by comma
MIDAZ_ACCOUNT_TYPE_VALIDATION=<organization-id>:<ledger-id>
