GL190 - Journal Posting

Run GL190 (Journal Posting) to post journal entries. The program posts
released journal entries created in the General Ledger system, interfaced from
a non-Lawson application, or transferred from other Lawson Software
applications. If you use a Workflow system for approving journal entries, the
journal entries that require approval must be approved before you can post
them to the general ledger.

The Journal Posting program
* posts released journal entries with a posting date less than or equal to
  the Through Posting Date you define,
* creates balancing entries for interzone journal entries,
* creates auto-balancing entries for recurring journal entries that were
created in currencies other than the company base currency and posts them
either to the auto-balancing system account (if the company uses the
auto-balancing option) or the error suspense account (if the company does not
use auto-balancing),
* updates account balances,
* changes the journal entries to a posted status, and
* changes journal entry transaction lines to historical status.
* updates the Undistributed Retained Earnings account for Income Statement
accounts.

Before updating company account balances, the program converts nonbase
currency amounts to the company base currency. The program does not post
journal entries that have a journal hold code assigned or journal entries that
require approval in a Workflow system and are not yet approved.

Inquire on posted journal entries in GL90.1 (Transaction Analysis) and GL95.1
(Account Analysis). You cannot run this program and GL199 (Period Closing) at
the same time.

You post multiple journal entries at the same time as long as the Company,
Fiscal Year, Period, System Code, or Operator is different for each job.

If you are posting intercompany journal entries, run GL190 (Journal Posting)
for both the originating ("from") company and the posting ("to") company.

This program can create up to 4 separate reports if you select All in the
Report Currency field and Both in the Report Style field. This creates a
report for the Inline style and a separate reports for the Base, Report 1, and
Report 2 currencies.
