How/when is the general ledger updated?
G/L updates are done “under the covers”. The General Ledger Master Constants contains codes which allow you to specify a general ledger account number associated with the code (ie. AR = accounts receivable). When you print invoices, the system knows that the A/R G/L number needs to be updated (as well as Sales) and because you have specified the G/L number for each of the codes, it is a simple process for the invoice printing program to retrieve the correct G/L number from the associated code. However, for manual entries, the G/L DEBIT/CREDIT MEMO ENTRY/POST program is provided.
