You use this program to create General Ledger journals from the transaction journals posted using the GRN Adjustment program.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Start Processing |
Select this to begin processing according to the Journal options you selected. If you did not select the option: Create GL journal for Inventory (General Ledger Integration), then the journals for the General Ledger are created from the GRN transaction journals. If the option: Create GL journal is not enabled for Inventory, but the option: Post GL journal (General Ledger Integration) is enabled, then once the journals are created they are automatically posted into the General Ledger. You use the GL Journal Report program to generate a report of these journals. If you did not select the Post GL journal option, then you need to use the GL Journal Entry program to post the journals once they are created. See also: Notes and warnings. |
| Select this to print the information currently displayed in the Report pane. | |

This program can only be accessed if Inventory is linked to the General Ledger either in Detail or in Summary (General Ledger Integration).
While the transaction journals are created automatically when you successfully process a transaction, the corresponding General Ledger journals are created and posted according to your selections for the module in the General Ledger Integration program. Refer to Effect of automation level selected.
-
When errors are detected during the creation of the General Ledger journals from the sub-module transaction journals, the journal may or may not be created depending on the type of error.
Refer to General Ledger Integration Error Handling for additional details.
-
You can use the GRN Suspense Journals program to identify the transaction journals for which ledger journals have not yet been created.
-
If the GL analysis required option is enabled for a ledger account used in this program (General Ledger Codes or GL Structure Definition) then the GL Analysis program is displayed when you post the transaction, so that you can enter the analysis details.
The Ask Me Later function is only available when the option: Force GL Analysis - GL journal posting is enabled for the sub-module (General Ledger Integration - General Ledger tab).
General Ledger analysis entries are always distributed in the local currency, regardless of the currency in which the original transaction is processed.
