General Ledger

	General Ledger This topic describes the differences between the General Ledger modules in Infor LN 10 and in Infor LN 10.2.1. Infor LN 10 In Infor LN 10, the actual ledger and dimension mapping showed the user one screen per ledger account/dimension. New in Infor LN 10.2.1 Mapping scheme improvements Users have a comprehensive overview of the mapping tasks they have completed and which mapping tasks remain to be done. Dimension mapping is improved for situations in which a dimension mapping is performed based on multiple elements. If the dimension element group contains multiple element codes, for each element code, you can indicate whether the dimension code should be retrieved from the element value itself when the actual dimension mapping is done. As a result, the time required to set up dimension mapping for such dimensions is greatly reduced. This will especially apply to "fast-moving" dimensions, such as projects. The Mapping by Element Group (tfgld4667m000) session was added. These sessions were redesigned: Ledger Mapping (tfgld4569m000) Dimension Mapping (tfgld4571m000) These sessions were enhanced: Integration Document Types (tfgld4557m000) Mapping Scheme Details (tfgld4574m000) Default Accounts (tfgld4578m000) Element Groups (tfgld4567m000) Mapping Scheme Errors and Warnings (tfgld4576m000) Integration Transactions (tfgld4582m000) Integration and reconciliation report improvements The Print Reconciliation Data (tfgld4495m000) session was redesigned and enhanced: You can print a report for a specific reconciliation group or for multiple reconciliation groups. The Print Flat Report option allows you to print a report without selection details and (sub) totals. This report can be opened in, for example, Microsoft Excel. Inventory transaction IDs are now shown including the order type origin. Enumerated integration/reconciliation elements are displayed that use the description instead of the constant value. Improved printing of trial balances including export options In Infor LN 10.2.1, functionality is introduced that allows you to create customized integration and tax reports. For this purpose, the Print Trial Balance for External Reporting (tfgld3412m000) was redesigned and enhanced. Reverse/recurring journals improvements You can now automatically mark a journal voucher to be reversed in a next period in the Documents (tfgld0618m000) session. Usability and terminology of the Recurring Journal - Transactions (tfgld0140m100) session was improved. Usability improvements Infor LN 10.2.1 includes these usability improvements: The following sessions now provide you with an overview of ledger account balances: Ledger History (tfgld3501m000) Distribution by Business Partner (tfgld3530m000) Dimension History (tfgld3520m000) Finalization of individual batches was improved with the introduction of the Finalization Run Numbers (tfgld1609m000) session, which provides easy access to the Batches by Finalization Run (tfgld1100m000) session. Inquiry of documents and (non-)finalized transaction lines was improved with the introduction of the Document History - Transaction Lines (tfgld0618m200) session. Minor enhancements Infor LN 10.2.1 includes these minor enhancements: Finalization authorizations were improved. For example, in the Finalization Administrators (tfgld0125m000) session, finalization administrators can disable finalization of their own batches. To better support other methods of (statutory) reporting in some countries, complementary accounts can be used in the mapping scheme. Performance improvements Infor LN 10.2.1 includes these performance improvements: As a result of a redesign of the finalization process, performance was improved. For performance reasons, in the Print Reconciliation Data (tfgld4495m000) session, the Include Non-Finalized Transactions field is initially hidden.
