Viewing Period End Journals

To view period end journals, you must have the transaction permission Period End Journals. You must also have access to both the Subsidiary and the Source Subsidiary for the period end journal.

NetSuite offers several methods to view period end journals:

You can view period end journals immediately after they are created by clicking the results link on the Task: Create Period End Journals page. The link opens a Processed Records page that has links to the specific type of period end journals created for the subsidiary. The links are in the Result Record column.

For consolidation journals, if the result count is not zero and no links appear in the Result Record column, check your consolidated exchange rates for the period. If rates do not change from one period to the next and no transactions are posted, no consolidation journals are created. If the rates on your account did not change and you think they should have, contact NetSuite Customer Support.
You can click the Execution Log icon on the Task: Create Period End Journals page. The icon opens a Period End Journal Execution Log page. By default, the log lists the period end journal processes you have submitted for the subsidiary in the current period. However, you can use the filters to select different accounting periods, subsidiaries, accounting books (if you use multi-book accounting), and creation dates.

Click the Complete link in the Submission Status column to open the Processed Records page with links to the period end journals. If you have deleted period end journals, the Submission Status column includes text instead of a link. If you have rerun steps for your period end journals, some Processed Records pages may have no results records. For information about deleting and rerunning period end journals, see Deleting Period End Journals and Rerunning Create Period End Journals Steps.
Go to the Period End Journal list page, and click the View link for the journal you want to open.

If you use the classic interface, the path to the Period End Journals list page is Transactions > Financial > Period End Journal Entries.

If you use the Accounting Center, the path is Financial > Other > Period End Journal Entries.
You can search for period end journals. For information, see Search for Period End Journals.
