G/L Reference

Enter a description of the transaction. This reference is posted to the G/L as part of the G/L Journal Transaction. Once this transaction is posted to G/L, this reference is the best way to determine the source of this G/L Journal Transaction.

The default values depend on the type of transaction. The following table shows the possible transaction types, invoice types, and corresponding default G/L Reference values.

Transaction Type	Apply to Invoice	Default G/L Reference Value
Invoice		ARI (Invoice)
Debit Memo	0	ARD Open
Debit Memo	-1	ARD FIN CHG
Debit Memo	Other than 0 or -1	ARD (Invoice)
Credit Memo	0	ARC Open
Credit Memo	-1	ARC FIN CHG
Credit Memo	Other than 0 or -1	ARC (Invoice)

You can overwrite the default entry with any reference description that helps identify the type of transaction entered.
