Creating Journal Entries
To create journal entries only for the General Journal and for user-defined journals, use the Journal Entries form. You cannot use this form to create journal entries for the distribution journals. Entries for the distribution journals originate in the corresponding module (such as A/R for the A/R Dist journal, A/P for the A/P Dist journal, and so on).
The
menu includes these options:- Sequence Reset: Changes the sequence numbers for the transactions. You must perform this function when adding a new transaction between two consecutive transactions.
- Journal Compress: Compresses journal transactions for each account
by date. Compressing a journal reduces the number of transactions in the journal,
making a journal more manageable and easier to view on the form. Note: If you compress the journal, control numbers will be deleted.
- Post Journal: Posts journal transactions.
