Understanding the G/L Batch Status History (Release 9.2 Update)

The G/L batch status history functionality provides the ability to audit when a batch is created, deleted or the batch status is changed. It provides a history table and an inquiry application that tracks who has changed the status of a batch, what the change is, and when the status of a batch has changed. Examples of the actions that are tracked include creation, approval, and posting.

The G/L Batch Status History (F00119) table gets populated with the Batch Header (F0011) information when the batch is created, deleted, or the batch status is changed. This information enables auditors and accountants to audit actions taken against all batches of general ledger transactions, resulting in improved financial controls and segregation of duties compliance.
