Journal setup

The Journal Setup form is one of two options for configuring how Infor Public Sector creates journal entries for billing transactions. The other option is to use the General Ledger Setup form.

See General ledger setup.

If the General Ledger feature is not activated in the Feature Switches page, then the settings from Journal Setup are used. If the General Ledger feature is activated, the settings from General Ledger Setup are used instead.

The Journal Run task in the Batch Manager creates a journal entry for each transaction in the system, indicating the transaction amount, the debit budget number, and the credit budget number. The two different setup options define how the budget numbers are selected.

See "Batch Processing" in the Infor Public Sector User and Administration Library.

The Journal Setup form defines formulas that are used to select the debit and credit budget numbers for different transaction types and designators.
