Journal Entries and the Three-Tier Process

When you enter daily journal entries, you are performing the first of three steps in a three-tier process.

This process is used throughout all JD Edwards EnterpriseOne journal entry programs and consists of these steps:

1. Entering journal entries into a batch.

2. Reviewing and approving the batch for posting.

3. Posting the batch transactions.

In the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Manufacturing Accounting system, you create journal entries for various types of shop floor activities, including:

• Material issues.

• Labor and machine reporting.

• Completions.

• Scrap.

• Variances, including:

  • Engineering.

  • Planned.

  • Actual (material usage, reported hours).

  • Other.
