General Ledger  Journal Entry

Journal Entry Overview (continued)

Journal Templates

If the same Journal Entry is posted every month, the User may create a Journal Template with all the required account number information, then retrieve the template and post with the desired posting date.  If the amounts on the Journal Entry change from month to month, the amounts on the template may be modified prior to posting.  Using Journal Templates saves a great deal of data entry time.

Importing a Journal Entry from Excel

Journal Entries may also be imported from an Excel Workbook.  Instructions will be provided later in this help on how to use this feature.

Correcting Errors

If an error was made on the Journal Entry, the only field that may be edited is the Category.  If the incorrect account number or any other information was incorrect, the User may delete the entire Journal Entry and then re-enter.  Only Journal Entries manually created may be deleted provided the original posting date is in an Accounting Period where the status is set to Open or Re-Open and the User has the appropriate User permissions to do so.
