G/L Integration:Transactions Tab

This tab lets you specify the type of information to use in the transaction description, detail reference, detail description, and detail comment fields in the general ledger transactions arising from payroll transactions.

This information also displays on the payroll posting journals and the General Ledger Journal Entry window and reports.

To use the Transactions tab

  1. On the G/L Integration window, select the Transactions tab.
  2. Either double-click the field for the particular transaction header or detail, or select the field, then click Open.
    • The G/L Integration Detail window opens. It displays the transaction type and the G/L transaction field you selected on the Transactions tab.
  3. Specify information for the selected G/L transaction field, as follows:

    1. Select a character to separate segments of information. (The separator is used only if you assign more than one segment. The default separator is a hyphen.)
    2. To assign one or more segments to the selected transaction field, select the segments from the Choose Segments From List section, then click Include.
    3. To remove a segment, select the segments from the Segments Currently Used section, and click Exclude.

    You can assign a maximum of five segments to a G/L Transaction field, providing that the combination does not exceed 60 characters. If the assigned information exceeds this number of characters (including separators), it will be truncated when the transaction is posted.

    As you include or exclude segments, the Example field shows the segments you have selected for the transaction type.  

  4. Click Save and Close the G/L Integration Detail window.

  5. Click Save and Close the G/L Integration window.
