The alternate chart of accounts file (ALTACCT - File # 43) contains one record for each link from a base account to an alternate account.  The primary index defining the record is <SET> <ACCOUNT><SUB-ACCOUNT>.  The SET field contains the unique identifier that is assigned to the alternate chart of accounts when the name for it is created and is a number tracked by the alternate chart of accounts counter in the system parameters file (F248:#ALTCOFA).
