Purchase Journal
The Purchase Journal allows you to select the beginning date and ending date for the purchase journal report. The purchase journal shows each accounts payable invoice dated in the selected time period sorted by the general ledger account number to which it was expensed. This Module step can be used for the analysis of periods other than a typical monthly accounting period. For example, you may wish to run the purchase journal for an accounting quarter or for the entire year. If you are performing a standard accounting period close, you would simply select the accounting period beginning and ending dates for the period you are closing.
After choosing [OK] the purchase journal will be displayed in Print Preview. To print the report choose either the [Print] button from the toolbar or from the File Module choose Print (Alt + F + P). To close the report when you are finished choose [Close Window] from the toolbar or, from the File Module, choose Close (Alt + F + C).
If you find any invoices posted to an incorrect general ledger account number, you can edit them through the Edit Purchase Journal Module step before they are updated.
For step-by-step instructions, see the Common General Ledger Transactions section.
