Processing the Cashiering GL Interface

You must process the cashiering GL (general ledger) interface to send to your GL any cashiering transactions that are not posted to a student or corporate account. You can send department receipts to the GL only through the cashiering GL interface process. However, if you process any transactions using nonpostable target keys but still need to send them to your GL, you must do so using the cashiering GL interface process. The system sends cashiering transactions using postable target keys to the GL using the regular GL interface process as long as you set up the item types that are associated with the applicable target keys to go to the general ledger. Use caution with target key and item type setup to ensure the following results:

• The system sends all necessary transactions to the GL through either one of the two GL interface processes.

• The system does not send transactions to the GL twice.

Furthermore, you can only send cashiering overage and shortage GL entries using the cashiering GL interface process. And if you select the GL Interface Required check box during the setup of your cashiering office, you must run the cashiering GL interface before you can close your cashiering office.
