Journalize posted journal entries

The journalize process in the general ledger provides a way to group and report on posted voucher entries for your general ledger. Based on the criteria that you provide, the processing generates a list of vouchers that use a unique number sequence and that have the general ledger Journal number value as a reference.

Follow these steps to journalize posted journal entries. This procedure uses the USMF demo data company.

1. Go to General ledger > Ledger setup > General ledger parameters.
2. In the Extended ledger journal field, select a value. If you select Yes, the report output will be different.
3. Select whether the period can be closed if the journalizing process hasn't been run. If you select Yes, the period can't be closed until the journalizing process has been completed for that period.
4. Close the page.
5. Go to General ledger > Periodic tasks > Journalizing, and select Filter.
6. Select the row for the filter criteria that you want to define.
7. In the Criteria field, enter or select the filter criteria.
8. Select OK to close the page.
9. Select OK to start the journalizing process. A report will be generated after the process is completed.
