Posting journal entries

You must post journal entries at least once in an accounting period to update account balances. You can perform journal posting any time after you release a journal entry. Use this procedure to post journal entries. You can also update account balances for reports and inquiries without actually posting. Quick-posting

You must release a journal entry before it can be posted. Any transaction with a journal hold code attached can only be posted after the hold is removed.

Thru Posting Date, System, or Operator

To narrow the group of journal entries to be posted, you can run Ledger Journal Posting (ML190) for a specific system code, for a specific operator code, or through a specific posting date.
