Parameter Definitions

As part of the year-end process, you must rename the previous year's files in the (LJ1) General Ledger Archive Parameters screen. However, to be able to post or inquire on a previous fiscal year, the system must know where this information is stored or archived.

 

In addition, if you also plan to use the A/P General Ledger Invoice Detail feature, you must appropriately set up the fields in this screen. Even if you can’t remember the vendor’s name or invoice number, you can use this feature to view pertinent invoice information including the invoice date, the vendor’s name, the total debits and credits, the batch number, and the business period the invoice was posted to in the General Ledger Posting window.
