After posting
-
Project and Job Costing posts only error-free entries. If you try to post a transaction or that batch that contains an error, the program rejects the transaction or batch, and displays an error message. You can print the error message, if you want.
-
-
You should keep your audit trail up to date by printing and filing each posting journal as follows:
-
Print the posting journal to obtain an audit trail report of posted transactions.
-
Project and Job Costing creates a journal of the entries that you posted together. These posting journals are an essential part of your audit trail, because they provide a record of all posted details and of the related general ledger distributions.
-
Print the G/L Transactions report each time you create general ledger transactions. The report lists all the distributions that were created for general ledger accounts when you posted transactions.
