Entering general ledger journals

Most general ledger journals originate automatically from other Synergetic programs, such as Debtors and Creditors.

Use the General Ledger Journal Entry window to manually create general ledger journals.

The general ledger is updated when the posting is closed off. Before that time, you can modify the general ledger journal.

A posting can be entered in a future year if the future year has been created. See Creating the next general ledger year.

The functions that require manual general ledger journal entries include:

• Accruals. For example, for long service leave.
• Standing journals. For example, lease payments.
• Asset sales.

How to:

• Search for an existing journal. See Searching for general ledger journals.
• Create a journal posting. See Creating general ledger journal postings.
• Copy a previous journal posting. See Copying past general ledger journal postings.
• Create a general ledger journal manually. See Creating general ledger journal entries manually.
• Create a reversing journal, by copying a past general ledger journal posting and indicating it is a reversing journal. See Copying past general ledger journal postings.
• Import general ledger journals from another application. See Importing general ledger journals.
