P/O G/L Transactions Report Screen

Open Purchase Orders > P/O Analytical Reports > G/L Transactions.

Overview

Print the G/L Transactions report to obtain a list of the general ledger journal entries created from all transactions posted in Purchase Orders since the last time you created the general ledger batch. You can print detailed or summary versions of the report.

You should print the report before you use the Create Batch screen to produce general ledger transactions. When you create the general ledger batch, the program erases the data for the G/L Transactions report.

In multicurrency systems, you can print amounts either in the functional currency or in the source (vendor) currencies in which you posted the transactions in Purchase Orders.

Note: You cannot print the G/L Transactions report if Purchase Orders creates transactions during posting or day-end processing. More...

The option Create G/L Transactions (on the Integration tab of the P/O G/L Integration screen) determines whether and when you can print this report:

  • During Day End Processing. If Purchase Orders uses this option, the program sends general ledger transactions immediately to General Ledger. You can view the transactions only in General Ledger, and you cannot print the G/L Transactions report in Purchase Orders.
  • On Request Using Create Batch Icon. If Purchase Orders uses this option, you can print the report in Purchase Orders after you post transactions or run Day End Processing (depending on when you cost inventory), but before you create G/L batches.

Tip: Remember to run Day End Processing before you create the general ledger batch if you want to include the latest costing information in the report. For more information, see Performing Day End Processing.
