Updating General Ledger is the last step in transferring Accounts Payables and Accounts Receivable account activity to General Ledger. You select the batches of postings representing the account activity, and then apply them to the chart of accounts.

 

After you have released to General Ledger, the Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable transfer files contain the postings that have been released. Updating General Ledger creates journal entries from the selected batches. These entries are then automatically posted to the appropriate General Ledger accounts. The period to date, year to date, and current balances are updated with the amounts from the entries.

 

1.  Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable Transfer files will be purged automatically as part of the update process.

 

2. Batches of postings from Accounts Payable only exist if you have installed the optional entrée Accounts Payable system.

 

3.  To facilitate troubleshooting in the "Update" process, the purge operation will retain any data that is 60 days old or newer as determined from the "End" date of the entry and the "System Date" at the time the process is run.
