The journal status (ECA, PCA, PA, or CA) column displays the status of journals for the entities in the selected entity list.
If you use the Local data view, the column displays the status of the Entity Currency Adjustments (ECA).
If you use the Translation data view, the column displays the status of the Parent Currency Adjustments (PCA).
If you use the Consolidation data view, the system displays a column for the status of the Parent Adjustments (PA) and a column for the Contribution Adjustments (CA).
A green flag in the journal status column indicates that there are no unposted journals. A red flag is a warning that there are unposted journals that need to be posted for the entity. When you hover the mouse over the flag, the system displays the number of unposted journals to which the entity has security access. When you click the flag, the system opens the Journals module so that you can view the unposted journals for the process unit that you selected. You can then post the journals.
To view the journal status:
From the Process Control window, select the entity top member for which to show journal status.
The journal status is displayed in the ECA, PCA, PA, or CA Status column.
Optional: If the column displays a red flag indicating unposted journals for a process unit, click the flag to open the Journals module and view the unposted journals.
