General Ledger

This topic describes the differences between the General Ledger module in Infor LN FP5 and in Infor LN FP6 that are not already discussed in other differences topics.

Account matching
  • Automatic matching
    • Automatic matching parameters are defined in a separate session: Account Matching Parameters (tfgld1161m000).
    • Account matching now makes use of priorities and priority sequences.
    • Account matching can be performed based on multiple criteria, such as transaction reference (or part of it), transaction type, and document number.
  • Manual account matching
    During matching no checks are performed whether specific transactions can be matched. These checks are performed when the transaction is approved. Each user is only allowed to match the ledger accounts to which that user is assigned. If required, transactions can be added to an existing set of matched transactions.
  • Approve matching transactions

    Account matching can only be performed by users who are authorized for the applicable ledger accounts. Users who are authorized to approve the resulting matching transactions, can only approve transactions within the tolerances that are defined for their ledger accounts.

    One or more users can be authorized to approve other users' matching transactions for their own ledger accounts and within their tolerances.

    Any user can process matching transactions for their own set of ledger accounts.

    A super user can match, approve, and process matching transactions for any ledger account and for any tolerance.

Note
  • The new functionality in Infor LN FP6 allows account matching on finalized transactions in the local currency only.
  • For more information, refer to Account matching.
