GL Journal

Use the GL Journal function to print transactions for periods and source codes as part of your audit trail.

Print the GL Journal every time you make journal entries or copy and write recurring entries so that you have a written record of that day's work. Print it at the end of each accounting period, and store it in a safe place. If you use a printed copy for reference, make sure that you have the most recent version.

If you elect to list a range of accounts, the debit and credit balances might not balance because not all offsetting transactions are listed. You must list all accounts to verify that the transactions are in balance.

If you interface other TRAVERSE applications with General Ledger, check the posting totals report produced by the other applications against the GL Journal to make sure that every debit and credit is posted.

Use the Data Filter to select the range of filtering options or leave the filter blank to include all available data.
Sample GL Journal Data Filter
Select the sort criteria for the journal from the Sort By section.
Select whether to print Posted Transactions, Unposted Transactions, or All Transactions from the View section.
Select whether to print the Transaction Date (the date the GL Journal entry was entered) or Post Date (the date the GL Journal entry was posted to master) in the journal from the View Date section.
Select a fiscal year for the journal from the Year field.
Select a currency for which to display transaction totals from the Report Currency field. TRAVERSE converts all transaction amounts from their original currency to the base currency (if necessary), then prints all transactions on the journal.
Note: The transactions' original currency values are not replaced, they are simply calculated to the selected currency value for the journal.
Select, if applicable, the Banded Rows check box to highlight alternating lines on the report to make the journal easier to read.
Note: Use the System Manager Print Preferences function to define the default setting for this check box. You can then override this default when you print the journal.
Manage the sorting order for account IDs using the Account ID Sort section, if available.
Enter the headings you want to print on the journal in the Headings section.
