Journal Print (GLR720)

Using Reports

Use the Journal Print program to print out all journal entries for a given fiscal period. These journal entries are those entered through the Journal Entry program or posted automatically from other modules.

Journal entries are printed in journal and then entry order. Included on the journal print is all journal information originally field plus journal totals.

Report information includes the following: the journal number, entry number, entry date, memo, line numbers containing GL account number and description and amount posted. The total number of entries listed is also included. Should an entry, and consequently a journal total, be out of balance, this entry will be noted.

NOTE: During the first period of the fiscal year, the journal print will be out of balance due to the entry posted to retained earnings when the year was closed.

Templates that store "current period" (or similar values like "system date") resolve to the "current period at the time the report is run" rather than what the "current period" was at the time the template was created. For example: If you save a template for the Journal Print and select "Current Period" for the Period field, when that template is selected to run again (either manually or via Job Stream) the period is determined using the current period in the Company Periods & Ending Dates F/M (GLF970) when the report is run not the period when the template was created.

Access this program by choosing General Ledger-->Reports & Prints-->Journal Print.
