Configuring GL Impact for a Custom Segment Overview

If you've applied a custom segment to transaction types or columns, the segment can have GL impact. When you enable GL Impact, segment values that are saved on transaction instances are displayed on the GL Impact page for those transactions.

If wanted, you can select the GL Impact option even when the segment isn't applied to transaction types or columns. However, until you apply the segment to a transaction type or column, this option has no effect.

Any user who has permission to create a custom segment can enable GL impact for that segment. However, after the segment has been created, this option can't be modified.

For custom segment values, if a period is closed, you can't change custom segment values that impact GL on any transactions in the period.
