To set up the journal book

This functionality is specific for Italy.

To set up the journal book:

  1. In the Company Parameters (tfgld0503m000) session, select the Journal Book check box.
  2. In the Journal Book Sections (tfgld0150s000) session, define the required journal book sections.

    For non-statutory transactions that must not appear in the journal book, you can define dummy sections. For a dummy section, you must clear the Include in JB Summary check box.

  3. In the Transaction Types (tfgld0511m000) session, select the journal book section for each transaction type in the Journal Book Section field.
  4. To avoid backdating transactions to periods for which the journal book was already finally printed, in the Transaction Types (tfgld0511m000) session, you can optionally select the Block Backdating check box.

To exclude transactions from the journal book, complete the steps described in the next section.

To exclude transactions from the journal book

Usually, the integration transactions must not be included in the journal book. To achieve this, you can link the transaction types of the integration transactions to dummy journal book sections for which you clear the Include in JB Summary check box.

However, if only the debit side or the credit side of the integration transactions must be excluded from the journal book, complete these steps:

  1. Link the transaction type to a journal book section which is included in the journal book.
  2. In the Chart of Accounts (tfgld0508m000) session, clear the Include in Journal Book check box for the ledger account to which you mapped the side of the integration transaction that must not be included in the journal book.
  3. To balance the journal book, in the Automatic Transactions (tfgld0130s000) session, define a schedule for the ledger account. For the contra account of the schedule, you must select the Include in Journal Book check box.
Note

You cannot create integration transactions if the journal book does not balance. To check whether the journal book entries balance, LN takes into account automatic schedules defined for ledger accounts for which you cleared the Include in Journal Book check box.
