Hi Arijit
The account determination is per period (year). Check that you have the correct fiscal year selected when updating the account determination. If you have created prior fiscal years, the best is to define the accounts in the oldest period first and make sure that all fiscal years are populated. When you add a new fiscal year in the future, the current year will automatically be copied to the new year's account determination. The reason for this is to allow customers to assign different accounts per fiscal year if needed. In most cases accounts do not change by year and should therefore remain the same.
As for the reconciliation account, it is found under the General TAB of account determination and MUST be provided even if you don't think you will need it.
Hope this helps.
