# Transfer Ledger to Another Group

**Transfer Ledger to Another Group** option is used to transfer a ledger, along with all its transactions, from one accounting group to another within the same type of account. For example, a ledger can be transferred from **Assets Group A to Assets Group B** or from **Income Group A to Income Group B**. It cannot be used to transfer ledgers between different account types, such as from **Assets to Income**.

## Steps to Transfer a Ledger

Step 1: Navigate to the **General Ledger** module.

1. Click **Settings** from the menu.
2. Select **Transfer Ledger to Another Group**.

* The Transfer Ledger to Another Group screen will be displayed.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.rbsgo.com/general-ledger/general-ledger-module/gl-settings/gl-settings-transfer-ledger-to-another-group.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
