Source Journals Report — Features

Source journals list the details of posted transactions for the source codes that you included in the source-journal definition, and in the order you specify at print time.

You specify the source codes that appear in a report in the source journal profile, and you specify the following items when you print the source journal:

  • The sorting order of the report (by account number, account segment, account group, or account sorted group).

  • The ranges of account numbers, segment codes, account groups, or account sorted groups.

  • The ranges of fiscal periods, references, dates, posting sequences, and batch numbers.

In other words, the journal profile specifies the type of transaction, but you refine the detail selection at print time. The result is a very flexible report for tracing all kinds of transactions, originating in any of the subledgers.

For instructions about printing the report, see Source Journals — printing.

Source journals can include up to 50 source codes for each journal. If you have less than 50 source codes in your ledger, you could print all transactions posted on a particular date or with a particular reference code.

Information printed on the report

  • The name of the journal. (Journals are identified by name.)

  • The ranges you specified for each column of the report.

  • Details listed in the order indicated by the columns.

  • The total debits and credits of all details printed.

  • Optional fields posted with transaction details, if you choose to include them.

  • If you use multicurrency accounting, you can print amounts for the report in both the source currency and the functional currency (on letter, legal, or A4 paper), or in reporting currency only.
