SECTION 5.5.1.2 - MODIFY AN
EXISTING JOURNAL
USAGE: Modify the details of an
existing Auto-journal. This option is only used for changing the static
information such as the name. It has no effect on any transactions you that may
have already been posted. If, for instance, you had setup the journal with an incorrect
value, you will have to correct the journals already posted, manually. New
journals will be created correctly.
DISCUSSION: When you start the MODIFY
program, the computer will initially ask for a Creditor code. Enter the
Creditor code and T.L.A. will display a list of Journals for that Creditor from
which to choose. The screen will display as follows:
To return to the CREDITOR AUTO-JOURNALS MENU, press <ESC>.
Choose a journal. For further details on searches,
see SECTION 1.2.
Having chosen a record, the computer will display
the current information pertaining to that auto-journal. You can modify any of
the fields that are surrounded by brackets. Also, you have the following
options available via the function keys:
<F1> This will cause T.L.A. attempt to read the next
auto-journal record. If there is one, it will be displayed. T.L.A. will move to
the next record without saving any changes you might have made.
<F3> Initiates a print of the Journals in list format
(only within the search screen).
<F4> This allows you to enter non-structured information
pertaining to this auto
<F8> Initiates a search through the General Ledger
master-file.
<F9> Returns you to the search screen without updating
the Journal.
<F10> will complete your entry, after checking for any
inconsistencies and confirming your request. Your changes will be saved to
disk, over-writing any previously stored information.
<ESC> will return you to the CREDITOR AUTO-JOURNALS MENU without updating the Auto-journal
master-file. If you simply wish to choose another record, use <F9> instead.
