Force Closing Enterprise Journals

When you are creating journals, there may be cases where you do not want to post the journals to any ERP, but would like to simulate and test the workflows. In these types of test cases where posting is not required, you can use a Force Close action on the journal.

To close a journal forcefully at any workflow level, you must have Administrator privileges, or be assigned as the current responsible user in the workflow.

When a journal is selected for Force Close, the workflow status will change to Closed, and the post status will change to Not Posted.

The user who changed the status to Force Closed is reflected in the History view.

To force close a journal:

1. On the Home page, click Application, and then click Enterprise Journals.

2. From the Journals list, click a journal to force close.

3. From the Actions menu, select Force Close.
