## Triggers

OnRun

## Calls

From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete.

- [Codeunit 3 "G/L Account-Indent"](../codeunit/3.md) (1 call: `CreateGLAccount → Indent`)

## Called by

- [Codeunit 6973 "Create Expense Categories"](../codeunit/6973.md) (17 calls: `AddPostingGroupSeed → ExpenseCreditRoundingAccountNo`, `AddPostingGroupSeed → ExpenseDebitRoundingAccountNo`, `AddPostingGroupSeed → ExpenseMealNonRefundableDebitAccountNo`, …)
- [Table 6930 "Expense Agent Setup"](../table/6930.md) (1 call: `CreatePostingGroupsDefaults → (object)`)

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "codeunit", object_name: "Create Expense GL Account")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
