When transactions are posted in the system—either to the general ledger or intermediate journals, depending on your accounting configuration—the grouping of debits and credits associated with the transaction is considered to be a journal series. Each series is categorized by module and assigned a unique journal number.
From the Journal Series screen you can review your transaction series—and also take action, when needed.
The following transaction series types may be reversed: simple journal entry, series journal entry, standard journal, and standard journal group. The same transaction series types may also be deleted (simple and series journal entries may also be edited)—but only if they were posted directly to the general ledger. You cannot edit or delete transactions posted to intermediate journals.
When a transaction has been deleted, it remains in the database and may still be viewed using the Show Deleted option on the General Ledger Transactions screen. Similarly, when you edit a simple or series journal transaction, the original transaction is marked as deleted—and the new, edited version is posted in its place. Transactions found in closed or frozen periods—or if they were part of a bank reconciliation—may not be modified.
To view transaction series for either the general ledger or journals (depending on your configuration), go to . The following screen will appear:
