RE_STGL_RUNCNTL

Enter the run control parameters and run the process to insert data into the journal interface tables for the selected period.

You must run the Journal Generator in PeopleSoft General Ledger to post the transactions to the ledger.

To post straightline entries to the journal staging table, you must run the Post Straightline Entries Application Engine process (RE_STGL_POST). The posting process uses the general ledger journal template defined at the Lease Administration business unit setup and loads a Journal Generator staging table in preparation for the Journal Generator process. You can post only one period at a time. Once the posting process is complete, the accounting entries are loaded into the Journal Generator staging table (RE_STLINE_GL). You need to run Journal Generator so the data can be posted into the general ledger.

See Understanding Journal Generator.

Use the Post Straightline Entries page (RE_STGL_RUNCNTL) to enter the run control parameters and run the process to insert data into the journal interface tables for the selected period.
