Use standard journals
You can use standard journals for transactions that are posted frequently with few or no changes. A standard general journal is a general journal that is saved as a default set of lines. It can be accessed at a later stage to automatically fill in general journal lines. You can save as many standard journals as you want.
A standard journal is created from a journal and it can be:
Created only for journals of the type General.
Used only within the same journal template.
Used for the different journal batches from the same journal template.
To save a standard journal, follow these steps:
Select the Search for Page icon in the top-right corner of the page, enter general journals, and then select the related link.
