Exporting General Ledger Entries

Use the Output Ledger utility to export all General Ledger entries to a file that you can use with the Import Journal utility.

Note: Before you run this utility for the first time, open the Report Options form, and create a record where Task Name is CHSOutputLedger and Output Format is either Comma Separated Values or Excel. When the report generation completes, a file with the extension .csv is created in your report folder.

To export the entries:

Open the Output Ledger form.
Select the starting and ending transaction dates.
Select the starting and ending transaction numbers.
Select the ID of the journal to export.

Note: Each day's amount total within the selected transaction range for the specified Journal ID must be zero.
Click Process to export the entries.
