Enter General Ledger Reclassifications

You can manually create a reclassification journal entry in the General Ledger.

To enter a General Ledger reclassification, use these steps:

1. Create a journal with the following four journal lines:

   • Debit account for the reversal

   • Credit account for the reversal

   • Debit account for the reclassification with the new Treasury Account Symbol (TAS) or Business Event Type Code(BETC) or both

   • Credit account for the reclassification with the new TAS or BETC or both

   When you create the journal entry, you must select a journal category that is defined as a lookup code value for the CTA Reclassification Journal Category lookup type.

   In addition, you must enter the federal-specific attribute values for the journal line for proper reclassification on the CTA bulk file. To enter federal-specific attributes, select U.S. Federal Attributes from the Regional Information drop-down list for the journal line and enter the federal-specific attribute values such as the BETC, Agency Location Code, Trading Partner TAS, Trading Partner BETC, and so on. For more information about the federal-specific journal line attributes, see Journal Line Attributes.

2. Post the journal to the General Ledger.
