Balance Interface (GL167)

Processing effect

During the conversion process, all records are edited for errors. When a record is moved from the General Ledger Balance Interface (GLMASTREL) (UNIX/Windows) or (DBGLGMR) (IBM i) file to the General Ledger Amounts (GLAMOUNTS) (UNIX/Windows) or (DBGLGAM) (IBM i) file, the interface file is deleted, unless errors are found. Non-base currency balances of all types (transaction, amount, report currency 1 or report currency 2) are moved to the CUAMOUNT (UNIX/Windows) or DBGLCAM (IBM i) file.

Once the program is run successfully in update mode, all periods, up to (but not including) the last period, that contain account balance amounts, will be changed to a Limited Closed status.

Troubleshooting

Use GL67.1 to correct errors and rerun this program.
