General Ledger - Account Reconciliations

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Is it possible to set up a general ledger account so reconciled items are flagged in some way?

We have a suspense account with many entries and we need to work through them as a team to rectify and post corrections. It would make life so much easier if we could see see has been corrected.

I have just started at the company and I am introducing best practice. We need to fix some old problems along the way. 

I am a qualified accountant to 30+ years experiences in companies from £6m to £10b t/o.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi Charity Joe,

    What I have seen in the past is that people used a separate item findim that was posted with each item transaction and that helped people to reconcile GL and inventory easily.

    Would that be an option for you?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Charity Joe,

    I totally agree with Ludwig, even in couple of implementations specially in manufacturing,  distribution and logistics based model i always suggest to keep not only "Item" financial dimension but also "item group" as well for smooth reconciliation.

    Hi Ludwig,

    Many thanks.

    I don't understand what you mean by "separate item findim". Is this a NAV terminology?

    I'm more a SAP/Oracle/Essbase guy.

    Best,

    Simon

    Hello Simon,

    Do you operate D365FO or Nav or another system?

    Would be great if you could clarify.

    Many thanks,

    You ended up in the wrong forum.

    Hi Marco,

    Many thanks but that isn't what I need. I am looking for a function like the Apply Entries function you have in the Customer Ledger but in the General Ledger. So items can be checked off as matched.

    There may be a confusion caused by terminology differences between the US and here in the UK.

    Hello,

    No problem, I am from EMEA and work with UK customers / partners. Feel free to raise it via your CSP / Dynamics NAV.

    Thanks.

    Hi Simon,

    The function Apply Entries on the General Ledger Entries is available in the BC LocalFunctionality of some European countries (France, Netherlands, Denmark). However, unfortunately this functionality is (apparently) not available in US, UK and HK.

    Does anyone know if this functionality will be made available in US, UK and HK? Or is it already and can I just not find it?

    Kind regards,

    Yvonne
