Passing Off Accrued Transactions to G/ L

This procedure is optional when completing Purchasing Passoff to A/P.

Passing Off Transactions to General Ledger

  1. Display the Automatic Passoff to General Ledger Report (GLP) window.

  2. Click Options. The Options page displays.

  3. In the Report Options field, select options specifying how you would like the report to print.

  4. In the Distribution Source field, select AP. This selection indicates that the distributions are coming from your accounts payable files. If you are passing off accounts payable distributions, then the distribution source must be AP.

  5. In the Period Cutoff Date field, select the latest valid distribution date (the date of the last voucher to be passed off). This field defaults to today’s date.

  6. In the Purge Distribution field, select Y or N. It is your choice to purge distributions but when you do, the system delete the distributions from the accounts payable files.

  7. In the Summary or Detail field, select D or S depending on the level of detail you want. If you select D, the system passes off each entry, regardless of the date of the account. If you select S, the system passes off one entry for each account and date.

  8. Click Print Setup and make changes to printing options, if needed.

  9. Click Run. You now have an audit trail of the transactions you passed off to General Ledger. The system creates the general ledger entries to debit Accrued Purchases and credit Accrued Accounts Payable in General Journal Transactions (GGMU).
