Use this screen to create a reverse journal entry of a previously posted journal entry. After you specify the journal entry number, journal entry type, and the subperiod in which you originally posted the entry, the screen creates a journal entry in the subperiod selected. You can then edit and post this journal entry in the normal fashion.
You can use this screen to reverse all six types of journal entries: Adjusting, Recurring, Reversal Adjusting, Reversal Recurring, Project Transfer, and Multi-Job Allocations. This includes journal entries that you created through separate processes such as the Compute Cost of Goods Sold Entry and the Compute Multi-Job Allocations screens. The journal entry created is always an Adjusting type. When you create the journal entry, the system assigns it the next sequential journal entry number.
Warning: Do not execute this screen while other users are in the Enter Journal Entries screen. Please have all users exit the Enter Journal Entries screen before executing this screen. |
Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. Once you save a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.
You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and consistently. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. If you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.
Enter, or use Query to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. You should choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as “PERIOD” or “QUARTERLY.”
When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.
You can use the parameter to produce reports and run processes more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. Once the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults as necessary.
Enter, or use Query to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.
