Posting Logs Overview

Use a posting log to view all posted information for a batch of transactions. Vision produces a posting log each time that you post a transaction file.

When you select a transaction type on the Posting Logs form, a list of posted transaction files displays on the form. You can then select a file and click the Posting Logs option on the toolbar to print or preview the selected posting log.

Multicompany

If you use the Multicompany feature, you can review only those posting logs owned by the active company. Vision includes in the report headers — for both the posting logs and the Posting Log Review — a Posting Owner field. This column shows you which company "owns" a given transaction (or set of transactions).

Multicurrency

If you use the Multicurrency feature, any billing extensions included on a posting log are calculated in either the project currency or the billing currency, depending on the setting of the Report amounts in billing currency, rather than project currency option on the General Tab of Accounting System Settings.

Undo Postings Utility

If you must undo a posted transaction, you can use the Undo Postings utility. When you undo a posted transaction, the posting log review includes a new posting that states the name and number of the removed transaction. For example, if you undo Journal Entry number six, the Posting Log Review for journal entries will include the listing: "Journal Entry posting run number 6 removed".

Warning: Use this utility with caution. Undoing a completed posting erases all transactions associated with the posting.
