Post Journals

Journal entries can be posted manually by a central GL responsibility (ASC Administrator-GL, GL Administrator, GL Accounting Manager, or GL Accountant) or automatically as a concurrent process scheduled overnight.  See the Automatic Postings table at the end of this section for a list of journal sources/categories that are posted automatically as part of the nightly batch processing.  All other journal sources/categories are posted manually.  The ‘Post Journals’ screen can be used to identify the journal batches for posting.

1.   Open the ‘Post Journals’ window and query the journal batch or batches that you want to post. You can also query all unposted journal batches

2.   Review the Period Status and Post Status to determine if a batch is available for posting.

3.   Select the journal batch(es) you want post.

Note: In the previous example the first journal entry is selected for posting.

4.   Click the [Post] button to initiate a concurrent process to post the selected batches.

Note: If you want to cancel a journal batch posting request, verify that concurrent request for the batch has a Post Status of ‘Pending,’ then cancel the concurrent request.  The batch status resets to ‘Postable.’

Note: If you re-query for posted journals you will see the marked journal identified as "Selected for Posting" and greyed out.

5.   Review the Posting Execution Report (GL Standard Report) to confirm that the batch was successfully posted.
