Reviewing the Sales Journal

Although the system generates this report automatically when you run the R42800 program, you can also select Sales Order Reports (G42111), Print Sales Journal and run it separately. This report is helpful to review how sales revenues are distributed.

Unlike the invoice journal, the sales journal contains only summary information. The report includes total invoice amounts, cost of goods sold, and profit amounts and percentages.

If you set up the system to use taxed prices and you run the Print Sales Journal report, the system retrieves the values from the Extended Tax Amount and Taxed Extended Price fields (domestic or foreign) for each sales order line in the Sales Order Detail Tax table (F4211TX). The system accumulates these values and displays the totals.

Important: If you set the Print processing option in the R42800 program to print a sales journal before sales update and do not reference a version of the Print Sales Journal program (R42810), then the R42810 program uses the same data selection as specified for the R42800 program.
