This topic describes the differences between the General Ledger module in Infor LN FP3 and in Infor LN FP5 that are not already discussed in other differences topics.
Block backdating of transactions
If you enter a transaction date that is earlier than the
most recently used batch date, documents with a higher document number can have
an earlier transaction date. This is not always desired or legally allowed.
To ensure that each financial document of the transaction
type has a batch date equal to or later than the batch dates of documents with
a lower document number, in the Transaction Types (tfgld0511m000) session, you can select the Block Backdating check box. If you select this check
box, LN automatically
selects the Documents in Fixed Sequence check box.
You can use the new Round (Non-) Finalized Amounts and Open Entries (tfgld6208m000) session to correct
the rounding of amounts that are not rounded according to the rounding factor
defined for the transaction currency. If the process results in unbalanced
documents, you can use the Correct Unbalanced Finalized Documents (tfgld6209m000) session to balance the rounding
differences.
