General Ledger Distribution Report - Purpose
General Ledger Distribution Report - Purpose
IA500E
The General Ledger Distribution Report program (IA500E) generates the General Ledger Distribution - Account Detail report (IA500A), the General Ledger Distribution - Account Summary report (IA500B), and the General Ledger Distribution Exception report (IA500C). The Account Detail report prints entries from Shop Floor, Manufacturing Order and Inventory journal entries. The Account Summary report records total debits and credits at the account/center level. These totals are separated if the DR/CR Separate Flag on Reference File category 421 is set to 'Y'. The Exception report prints an error message for any exceptions that occur during processing.
If a demand or trial demand post is requested, the cutoff date passed to this program will be used as the period end date on the reports, if it is less than the company/location period end date.
This program may be run as either a post or trial run. On post runs (demand or final), records are created in the Inventory Accounting Journal Entry Header (IA500AP1) and Inventory Accounting Journal Entry Detail (IA500AP2) files, which are then used as input to the General Ledger application. The Reference file (REFERP) IA period end parameters are reset updated during both post and trial runs. During post runs, the Reference file is also updated with the new Journal Entry Number (incremented by one for each company/location).
