Introduction
Every manual posting entered in Dynamics 365 Finance is entered through a journal. Entries do not post immediately in a journal. You can review, change, and verify completed journals until they are ready for posting.
There are many ways to set up journals to control different kinds of entries and to apply an approval system so that some journals post only after they have been approved. You also can choose whether to keep the used journals for historical purposes.
To use journals, you need to set up journal names.
This module explains the general ledger daily processes and procedures in Finance.
