Do you sometimes get summary journal transactions entered in the wrong GL period? With GMR, you can exclude these transactions based on a date range when transferring them into GL.

To use GMR - Date Sensitive Summary Journal Transfer, just enter a "From" and a "To" date as shown below:

|                                                                        |

|                                                                        |

|                                                                        |

After entering the "From" and "To" dates as shown above, the system will process all transactions included in that range. Any transactions with a date prior to the "From" date will be deleted. Any transactions after the "to" date will be saved. The next prompt will determine where they are saved.

You will then be prompted as follows:

This example shows 11 transactions being deleted because they were dated prior to 12/02/96. It also shows 44 transactions being excluded because they were dated after 12/31/96.

The example also shows the system has prompted the user for a GL period in which to save the excluded transactions. Since the current period is 12, the system has prompted for period 01. This can be changed to any period desired. GMR causes the excluded transactions to be saved for the period entered.
