Unposting Journals

You can unpost a journal after it is posted. For example, suppose you post several journals with adjustments to an entity, and you receive new data for that entity. You can unpost the journals, load the new data, and post the journals again.

When you unpost a journal, the journal status changes to Rejected. When you unpost an auto-reversal journal, the journal status changes back to Approved.

To unpost journals:

In the Smart View Panel, right-click a Oracle Hyperion Financial Management application, and then select Manage Journals.

The Manage Journals window is displayed.
Set the point of view as described in Selecting Dimension Members for Journal Detail.
Before proceeding, click Refresh, , to update the list of journals with those that correspond to the selected POV.

Refreshing the journals list helps you to avoid errors that may arise when the selected POV and the listed journals are not in sync.
