Creating General Ledger entries

Creating general ledger entries is a process that enables the Inventory Control application to share transaction and account information with the General Ledger application. This process is necessary to keep accounts across all Lawson applications in balance.

Create general ledger entries

  1. Access General Ledger Interface (IC130).
  2. Run this program to update the General Ledger File with inventory transactions processed in the Inventory Control (IC), Purchase Order (PO), Requisitions (RQ), and Warehouse (WH) applications. This form produces three reports, the General Ledger Transaction Register, General Ledger Posting Report, and the General Ledger Summary Posting Report.

    Specify this information:

    Company

    Select a company number defined on Company (IC01.1).

    Update

    Select whether to update inventory transactions to the General Ledger file.

    Post Thru Date

    Type a post through date. This creates general ledger transactions for inventory transactions with a general ledger posting date that is less than or equal to this date.
