Rec. GL are the GL which are appearing in your Trial Balance. 

 

1 Rec GL can have many subsidry GL (e.g. all vendor are consolidated in GL20XXXXX and where as vendor have different codes associated to them.)

 

another example all receiable are consolidated in105XXXX in Trial balance where as they have differenct customer code in system. 

 

These consolidated GLs are know as reconciliation GL. 

 

Special G/L transactions are special transactions in accounts receivable and accounts payable that are displayed separately in the general ledger and the subledger. This may be necessary for reporting or for internal reasons. For example, down payments must not be balanced with receivables and payables for goods and services. Consequently, they are treated as special G/L transactions in the General Ledger (FI-GL) Accounts Payable (FI-AP) and Accounts Receivable (FI-AR) application components.
