Adding Source Codes

You can define an unlimited number of reports, called source journals, that you can use to meet a variety of transaction reporting requirements.

Source journals list posted batch entries by their source codes. Typical source journals are a cash receipts journal, a cash disbursements journal, and a check register. You construct the source journals by entering a list of source codes to be included in each source journal.

You can select transactions within the predefined source journals by account number, segment, account group, fiscal period, reference, date, batch number, and posting sequence number.

You can also include transaction optional fields, account optional fields, select account groups by sort code range, and use rolled up amounts.

In a multicurrency system, you can also select and report source journal transactions by their source currency.
