Enabling the new journal process

This update includes a new journal process for billing transactions. You must enable the new process if you want to begin using it instead of the original formula-based journal process.

See New journal process.

To begin using the new process, you must first configure your general ledger in General Ledger Setup. We recommend that you use the GL simulator to thoroughly test your configuration before you enable the new process.

When you are ready to switch to the new process, activate the General Ledger feature on the Feature Switches page. After this is activated, the Journal Run task in the Batch Manager will use the general ledger configuration rather than the formulas defined in the Journal Setup form to create journal entries.
