Editing Period End Journals

To edit period end journals, you must have the permission Period End Journals, Edit level or higher. You must also have access to both the Subsidiary and the Source Subsidiary for the period end journal entry.

The only period end journal fields you can edit are the Memo fields and any custom fields or segments that do not affect the general ledger. Editing is permitted either when the period is open or when the Allow Non-G/L Changes box is checked on the period record. When Allow Non-G/L Changes is checked, users with the Setup permission Allow Non G/L Changes can make edits that do not affect the general ledger.

Note:

If the Period End Journal form has been customized, additional permissions may be required to edit the added fields.

Memo fields are included on each journal line as well as in the header.

To edit a period end journal:

  1. Go to Transactions > Financial > Period End Journal Entries, and click the Edit link for the period end journal you want to edit.

  2. Edit the fields you want.

    • If the fields you edited are in the journal lines, click OK after you complete each line.

  3. When you have completed your edits, click Save.

    All required fields on the period end journal must have valid values to save your edits.
