WIP Labor Journals

You use this program to view details of transaction journals created for labor transactions processed in the Work in Progress module.

Transaction journals are created automatically whenever you successfully process a transaction. The corresponding ledger journal is created and posted according to your selections for Work in Progress on the General Ledger tab of the General Ledger Integration program.

This program can be accessed by selecting the Browse icon from the Journal field of the WIP Labor GL Integration program.

This indicates whether a ledger journal exists (i.e. was created) for the transaction journal.

It is possible that the word "Yes" is indicated in this column, but that the GL year, GL period and GL journal columns contain only zeroes. This means that the system attempted to create a GL journal for the transaction, but that no GL journal was required (for example, the transaction journal was zero and the system does not create zero GL journals).

GL year

The General Ledger year for the ledger journal.

Zeroes indicate that the General Ledger journal has not yet been created.

GL period

The General Ledger period for the ledger journal.

Zeroes indicate that the General Ledger journal has not yet been created.

GL journal

The General Ledger journal number created for the labor transaction journal.

Zeroes indicate that the General Ledger journal has not yet been created. You need to use the WIP Labor GL Integration program to create the General Ledger journal.

A GL journal number does not indicate that the journal was posted into the General Ledger. It only indicates the ledger journal number that was created from the transaction journal and passed to the General Ledger module for processing. Ledger journals are posted according to your selections on the General Ledger tab of the General Ledger Integration program.
