About General Ledger Reports

General Ledger prints two main types of reports:

  • Audit reports that provide you with transaction listings and status information (such as batch listings, posting journals, source journals, the chart of accounts, and the trial balance).
  • Financial statements (such as balance sheets, income statements, and statements of changes in financial position).

    For an introduction to Financial Reporter, which you use to print these statements, see About Financial Reporter.

If you have a multicurrency ledger, these reports can also include source and functional-currency (home currency) information (on letter size, legal size, or A4 paper).

Note:
  • Posting journals are required reports that provide the audit trail for batches.
  • You cannot print batch listings for deleted and posted batches. If you need to list a posted batch, set up a source journal that includes all the source codes likely to have been used in the batch, then choose the batch number as the first means of selection when you are preparing to print the journal.
  • Source journals do not include comments or transactions that were consolidated on posting. If you need this additional information, print the posting journal.
  • Batch listings are optional unless you select the Force Listing Of Batches option for General Ledger. If you use the Force Listing Of Batches option, you must print every batch before you can post it.

    After you list a batch, its status will be Printed on the batch status report.
