GL Editing Journal Entries

Once you have created journal entries, you can modify, void, or post them. When you change or void a journal entry, the account balances are not immediately affected. You must post the journal entry in order to update the account balances.

 

The Journal Edit window is used only to edit, void or post entries that already exist on the unposted entry file.  Entries cannot be created in this window. To create entries you would use the Create Journal Entries window.

 

When you first open the GL Edit Journal Entries window, the first non-voided entry from the unposted entry file is displayed in the window. You can select entries for modification, voiding, or posting. Unposted entries can be posted later on, and voided entries are removed when you close the period or year.
