Job Journal Tab

This section includes the fields and descriptions for the Job Journal tab.

Journal Island

Field Description
Journal No. This field shows the job journal number, which identifies the journal. Maconomy automatically gives a new journal the next available journal number. The number cannot be changed manually, but you define the journal number series in the window System Numbers in the Set-Up module.
Created This field shows the name of the user who created the job journal. It cannot be changed.
Submitted This field shows the name of the user who submitted the current job journal.
Repeat Auto. You can mark this field to show that Maconomy automatically suggests the last used job, activity, task, and employee numbers when you create lines in the sub-tab. This field is marked by Maconomy when you create a journal and when you retrieve an old journal.
Post If you mark this field, the journal will automatically be marked as ready to be posted in the window Posting. The mark is transferred to the “Post” field in the Posting window sub-tab.

Company Island

Field Description
Company In this field, you can enter the name and number of the company responsible for the job journal. If you do not enter a value manually, Maconomy will attempt to derive a value, using the order of priority set up in the window Dimension Derivation in the G/L module. If no value can be derived, the standard value is transferred from the window System Information in the Set-Up module.

If you create job journal lines with an executing company different from the one specified in this field, Maconomy will automatically create intercompany entries at the posting of the job journal. In the intercompany entries, the company in this field will be the responsible company. However, if the system parameter “Create intercompany entries for companies with same parent company” is not marked, intercompany entries are only created if the two companies involved are not both assigned to the same parent company. See the section “Multiple Companies” in the chapter “Introduction to the G/L Module” and the window Intercompany Accounts in the G/L module for a further description of the concept of responsible companies and intercompany entries.
