Journal Import

If you use both General Ledger and Payables, you can submit Journal Import either when you submit the Payables Transfer to General Ledger program or later, from within General Ledger. Journal Import automatically creates from the accounting distributions in the Payables GL_INTERFACE table journal entries in the General Ledger GL_JE_BATCHES, GL_JE_HEADERS, and the GL_JE_LINES tables. If you transfer audit information, it populates the General Ledger GL_IMPORT_REFERENCES table.

Journal Import creates a journal entry batch for each set of books and period name on your invoice and payment records. For each currency in a batch, Journal Import creates a journal entry header. For each header in a journal entry batch, Journal Import creates one or more journal entries that correspond to the invoice and payment records in You can then post these journal entry batches, headers, and lines within General Ledger to update your account balances in General Ledger.
