Use this tab to set up and manage global policies that
affect journal entry and account numbers.
Next JE #
This field affects eFinancials. The field defaults
to JE00001.
Accept this default or enter another starting
journal entry number. When the next journal entry is created, the system
looks at this field, duplicates the format, and assigns the next sequential
number.
Remember to end the format with a number so that
the system is able to increment to the next number.
Allow Incomplete Journal Entries
Select this global policy if you want to allow
incomplete journal entries in the system. This policy works in conjunction
with user/role permission
settings. Select one of the following import options to control how
an imported journal entry will be treated when brought into the system:
- Do not Import Incomplete
JEs
- Import Unbalanced
JEs or JEs with Errors as Incomplete JEs
- Always Import as
Incomplete JEs
Validate Property/Building/Unit number vs. eSite at
time of entry
Select this option to validate the unit against
eSite. Validation is done using the eSite Web Service, which must be configured
to form a connection between eFinancials and eSite (Setup—Global Setup—Web
Service Setup). During all Journal Entry and Invoice Entry options when
a property/building/unit is specified and the policy is turned on, then
the unit is validated against eSite and a message returned if it does
not exist.
PO/AP Default Accounting Date
Select an option to specify whether the Default
Accounting Date is the Transaction Date or the Login Date. This applies
in eFinancials and ePO when adding or editing in Invoice Entry, Check
Entry, PO Entry, and Check Runs.
With Login Date selected:
- Changing the Invoice Date in Invoice Entry
does not automatically change the Accounting Date.
The Accounting Date keeps its value (i.e., the Login Date) unless the
user specifically changes it.
- Changing the Check Date in Check Entry
does not automatically change the Accounting Date.
The Accounting Date keeps its value (i.e., the Login Date) unless the
user specifically changes it.
- Changing the Accounting Date in Check Processing
does not automatically change the Accounting Date.
The Accounting Date keeps its value (i.e., the Login Date) unless the
user specifically changes it.
With Transaction Date
selected:
- Changing the Invoice Date in Invoice Entry
automatically also changes the Accounting Date.
- Changing the Check Date in Check Entry
(manual checks) also changes the Accounting Date.
- Changing the Accounting Date in Check Processing also changes the
Accounting Date.
Note
Refer to Effect
of Global Policies - Other Tab for more information about how the
policies PO/AP Default Accounting Date
and Automatically update line item dates
to the Default Accounting Date when PO/Invoice dates are changed
affect whether or not the system will automatically update line item dates
to the Default Accounting Date.
Automatically update line item dates to the Default
Accounting Date when PO/Invoice dates are changed
Select an option to specify if the system automatically
updates line item dates to the Default Accounting Date when purchase order
or invoice dates are changed, or alternatively, if the user will be prompted
to allow the updates. Options include: Yes, No, Prompt. This applies when
adding or editing in Invoice Entry, Check Entry, Check Runs and PO Entry.
