GL Audit Numbering and Other Features

The following information describes how the GL Audit Numbering feature interacts with other NetSuite features.

GL Audit Numbering and Multiple Calendars

If you use the Multiple Calendars feature and have multiple fiscal calendars with different start and end periods, or that are structured differently, you can run GL audit numbering for only those calendars in which you are in the last month of the period. For example, you run GL audit numbering every quarter. You have two fiscal calendars for two subsidiaries. One calendar begins its fiscal year in March and the first quarter ends in May. The second calendar begins its fiscal year in January and the first quarter ends in March. If you view the Manage Accounting Periods page in March, you can run GL audit numbering for only the second calendar that began its fiscal year in January. You cannot run GL audit numbering for the subsidiary that uses the first calendar until it ends its first quarter in May.

GL Audit Numbering and Multi-Book Accounting

If you use the Multi-Book Accounting feature and maintain multiple accounting books, you can assign book-specific GL audit numbering sequences. You can also perform the GL audit numbering period close process across multiple accounting books.

Important:

Transactions that have general ledger lines in one accounting book but not in another accounting book are numbered in the first book and ignored in the other book. Transactions that do not have general ledger lines in any accounting book are ignored in all accounting books. Transactions that have general ledger lines in multiple accounting books are numbered relative to the specific general ledger lines in each book.

GL Audit Numbering and Intercompany Journal Entries

Intercompany journal entries are associated with different subsidiaries. When you run GL audit numbering for intercompany journal entries, a unique GL audit number is assigned for each subsidiary in the journal entry.
