Understanding Journal Posting and Unposting

To post or unpost journals to their respective ledgers, use the ledger posting or ledger unposting engines within PeopleSoft EPM. When you run the consolidation application engines, if you choose the option to post, the system calls the appropriate PeopleSoft EPM application engines.

You can post journals with the status Valid, meaning that they have been edited. You can unpost journals with the status Posted. When journals are unposted, their status is Unposted.

You can access and run the post ledger process by using any of these methods:

  • Access the ledger post engine in the Manage Journals, Process Journals folder.

  • Select the Post Journal link on the Manual Journal Entries page or the Proforma Trial Balance page to access the Ledger Post run control page.

  • Select the Post Journal option when running the manual journal edit process.

  • Select the Post Journal Created option when running the elimination process.

  • Select the Post Journal Created option when running the equitization process.

Enter the consolidation business unit, scenario, fiscal year, and period for the journals that you want to post or unpost. To post journals, select the Job ID PF Ledger Post. To unpost journals, select the Job ID PF Ledger Post.
