Updating GL Overrides

This procedure outlines the tasks to update general ledger overrides.

Note: It is recommended that you review Payroll general ledger defaulting before using this program.

The application uses the deductions and pay codes assigned to a plan to determine which general ledger accounts are used to post transactions for the plan. You can override the general ledger accounts for the plan.

If you override general ledger accounts, the Infor Payroll application uses the general ledger accounts from this form when deductions are created in Employee Deduction (PR14.1) or when standard time records are created in Standard Time Record (PR30.1).

To update GL overrides

  1. Access General Ledger Overrides (BN20.1).
  2. Select the Company, Benefit type, and Plan.
  3. Type the start date for the general ledger table.
  4. Select the Inquire form function.
  5. Type the new start date.

    If you are correcting information that was entered by mistake, do not type a new start date.

  6. Change the distribution company, expense, and accrual accounts you want to override. If you leave Exp CO or Exp Account Unit blank and select only an expense account, the Payroll application uses the normal defaulting defined for distribution company accounting units.
  7. Select the Add form function. If you did not type a new start date, select the Change Function.
