Correct nominal journal entries in the current year
This involves correction of transactions entered from the current year journal entry window (manual journals) e.g. Nominal Ledger > Enter Transactions > Journal Entry.
- If the period in which you are posting the transaction is Future, the transaction you are posting will go into Deferred Pending Postings.
- If the period in which you are posting the transaction is Open and you have selected Update the Nominal Ledger immediately journal entries are posted in the Nominal Settings Options tab, the transaction you are posting will go into Current Transactions List (for posted transactions).
- If the period in which you are posting the transaction is Open and you have not selected the option to update the Nominal Ledger immediately in the Nominal Settings Options tab, then the transaction you are posting will go into Current Pending Postings.
