We can not call it as a difference but G/L account is a FI module entity while cost element is a CO entity w.r.t SAP. In the CO (Controlling) module of SAP, the term Cost Element is used. In the FI(Financial) module, the term G/L Account is used. These terms are used interchangeably for reporting, requisitions, and journal vouchers.
