How Journal Lines Are Enabled for Clearing Accounts Reconciliation

The Enable Journal Lines for Clearing Accounts Reconciliation process prepares historical journal lines for reconciliation.

You must run the process if:

You decide to reconcile existing clearing account journal lines that are already posted and that don't include reconciliation reference information.
You had not enabled clearing accounts reconciliation for the ledger and natural account segment values, at the time those journals were posted.

Prerequisite Steps

Before running the process, you must first set up clearing accounts reconciliation.

Enable primary and secondary ledgers for clearing accounts reconciliation, as required. Select the Enable reconciliation option in the Reconciliation section on the Specify Ledger Options page.
On the Manage Values page, set the Reconcile attribute to Yes for each of the reconcilable clearing account values in the natural account segment.
Run the Inherit Segment Value Attributes process to update existing account combinations with the changes to the segment values.

Process Submission

Specify values for the following parameters and submit the process:

Data access set
Ledger: If blank, all ledgers you have access to that are enabled for reconciliation are processed.
From Accounting Date: The default start date is the earliest reconciliation start date of all of the reconciliation types defined for the selected ledgers. You can change it to a later date.
To Accounting Date: If blank, the process uses the current date.

The process produces a report with summary information about the ledgers, accounting periods, and number of journal lines enabled. After the process has successfully completed, you can enter reconciliation references in clearing account journal lines using the Manual Reconciliation page.
