Final Update or Final Update Report

To update the General Ledger after you entered transactions in GL Transaction Entry, select Update Action > Final Update or Final Update Report. If you select Final Update, only GL Transaction Entry is updated. This option streamlines data entry because you do not have to provide printer information each time you finish entering a group of transactions. You can later run the GL Group Update Report by selecting No for the Update? option on the GL Entry Batch Update Report.

The Final Update Report option is available only if Yes is selected in the Allow GL Entry Transactions Final Update field in SA Operator Setup. The printer information window is displayed. You can change the posting date or period, and choose to print all records, update, and delete transactions after updating (applies to one-time groups only).

You can delay updating. Close the session without performing the final update. Run GL Entry Batch Update Report when you are ready to post the transactions to the General Ledger.
