Journal maintenance (FSR11001)

Related topics

This panel displays all journals that have not been updated because they are in error. Shown for each journal is the accounting year, transaction type, user id and creation date. The transaction type displays from where the journal originates.

General Ledger journals were created in the manual transaction entry routine or in the batch routines in DC1 Financials. A General Ledger journal may also have been created for A/R or A/P transactions that have been transferred from a pre-system, where the A/R or A/P has already been updated, but the related G/L postings are in error.

A/R batch invoice journals, A/R batch payment journals, A/P batch invoice journals and E/S batch transaction journals were created through transfer of transactions from pre-systems and have not yet updated the A/R or A/P. The corresponding General Ledger journal with the related G/L postings will not be created until the A/R or A/P journal is correct.

If errors are still detected, you can force the G/L update. This will result in the erroneous journal balances being posted to an “error suspense account” with an error report. These errors must be corrected by manual journal adjustment.

Transactions that lack important data, such as voucher number, voucher type and currency code, will never be updated to the General Ledger. Only the following errors will be accepted by a forced update:

  • incorrect or missing account string
  • unbalanced voucher

These two errors can be corrected afterwards within the General Ledger.
