View or add adjustment journal entries

The Adjustment Journal Entries list is the place to go to work with adjustments to accounting periods that are already closed. From the Adjustment Journal Entries list on the General Ledger menu, you can do the following:

  • Drill down to the list of journal entries, called the Adjustment Journal Transactions page, for a particular adjustment journal.
  • Create a new adjustment journal entry.

If a closed period is locked, you cannot make adjustments to it without first unlocking it.

After a journal entry transaction has been approved and posted, you cannot edit the entry. To make any changes, reverse the transaction or delete it and resubmit it. After the period is closed, you cannot reverse or delete the entry.
