Create a General Journal batch by importing journal entries from a file with an Excel, comma delimited or tab delimited (CSV) format. It is designed to import from another application that has generated journal entry information, such as client tracking applications, on-line payroll services or other database applications for conversion to the GMS Accounting System. The information you are importing must be in the following order: description, program element, project, GL code, debit and credit. Also, the description needs to be repeated for each line of an entry. Document numbers will be assigned for each different description that is found. You can select one file to import at one time to form the batch. Several items are checked to make sure that codes used in the file you are importing exist in your database. It will give you a list of the problems found that need to be corrected. This supplement eliminates the need for double entry into the accounting system.
