We are trying to reclass AA balance via a journal entry for a historical year (year 2013); zero out the balance for two dimensions. Is this the proper way to perform this (via journal entry)? I am aware of the Edit Analysis button however this function does not exist for journal entries in a closed year. This reclass entry will have zero effect on the GL as we are only trying to move the balance for AA.
We tried the following and it didn’t produce the results we were expecting:
- Made the AA dimension optional for Contract for the account in question
- Open fiscal period for year 2013
- Create a JE for 12/31/13
- Debiting and credit the same account.
After completing the steps above, we are left with distribution record on the AA table for a blank contract (contract is our AA dimension). If you would like I am available for a call to discuss and connect you. Thank you.
Any thoughts on how to get our desired results.
Thank you!
