GL Entry Reverse a Journal Report ranges and options

Ranges

There are no ranges for this report.

Options

Journal #
Specify the number of the journal to be reversed.
Period to Use for Reversals
Specify the period to be associated with the reversed transactions. This option is useful if you have closed prior periods and want to reflect any adjustments in the current period.
To go back one period, specify -1 in this field. For example, if you specify -1**, the period before the current period of the current year is used. If the current period is 0820, 0720 is used for the report.
Posting Date
Specify a number between -1 and -7 in the day segment to go back up to 7 days. For example, if you specify **/-7/**, the current date less 7 days is used for the date.
New Batch Name

Specify a new batch name. It must be a new name. The name cannot currently exist in GL Batch Setup.

If you specify a new batch name, new transactions are written to the internal GLEBT file in their original form. At this point, you can maintain the transactions with the corrections and repost them in GL Entry Batch Update Report.

When the batch file is created, transactions are updated with this information:

  • Batch Name: New Batch Name
  • Set #: The original set numbers are used
  • Trans #: The original transaction numbers are used
  • Description: Reversed ########
  • Type: One-time
  • Operator: spaces
Caution: 
If multiple references exist per transaction, only the reference contained on the GL Transaction Entry record is retained in the batch file.
Set Posting Date in Batch?
Select Yes to use the original transaction date.
