Create G/L Transactions During Day End Processing/On Request Using Create G/L Batch Icon

Sage ERP Accpac Inventory Control 6.0

Create G/L Transactions

Use one of the Create G/L Transactions options (on the Integration tab of the G/L Integration form) to specify when to create general ledger transactions:

  • During Posting or During Day End Processing

This option changes depending on the options you chose on the I/C Options Costing tab.

  • On Request Using Create G/L Batch Icon

During Posting or During Day End Processing

This option lets you create general ledger transactions during posting or when you run day end processing — depending on your settings on the I/C Options Costing tab.

You choose when to create G/L transactions and audit information on the Costing tab of the I/C Options form. The Create Subledger Transactions And Audit Info. During option gives you one of two choices on this form:

  • During Posting (available only if you cost items during posting)

G/L transactions will be created when transactions are posted.

  • During Day End Processing

G/L transactions will be created when you run the Day End Processing task.

Note: These choices can have a large impact on the speed of processing transactions in Inventory Control, Order Entry, and Purchase Orders. If you need to speed up order processing, switch to costing inventory when you run Day End Processing (in I/C Options), and create G/L transactions using the Create G/L Batch icon.   

On Request Using Create G/L Batch Icon

This option lets you create general ledger transactions at any time that's convenient for you.

Once you create the transactions, you cannot print the G/L Transactions report in Inventory Control. If you wish to print the report, select the On Request Using G/L Batch Icon for this option. You must then print the report before you use the Create G/L Batch form to create the transactions.

You can change your selection any time. If you were using the Create G/L Batch form to create the transactions, print a copy of the latest G/L Transactions report, then create any outstanding transactions before changing your choice for the option.
