Overview
Recurring Entries allow you to create journal entries that occur multiple times over a time frame.
Key Concepts
• | Recurring entries can be made for all journals except Employee Reimbursable, Receipts and Cash Disbursements. Recurring entries are implemented by using a mass copy operation. |
• | To make a recurring entry, you must first enter one transaction. After entering a transaction, click on the "Recurring Entry" button located on the toolbar to copy a specified number of times, beginning with a specified G/L period. |
• | In the case of purchases and sales, the assigned invoice number is the same as the G/L period code. The "Recurring Entry" button becomes activated when you recall an existing transaction to the screen. This will be the transaction it copies. |
• | The user must have the required G/L periods established. They do not have to be open periods. |
