Overview
Journal and transaction review screens help finance users locate accounting entries, inspect posted details, and answer questions about how a transaction affected accounts.
Where To Find It
Path: Accounts > Journal List / Transaction Details
Access depends on the module, company setup, and security permissions assigned to the user.
How It Works
Users filter the journal or transaction list, open the selected entry, and review dates, references, debit and credit lines, notes, and related source documents.
Main Areas
| Area | What It Means | When To Use It |
|---|---|---|
| Filters and search | Limits the list to the records the user needs to review. | Use it before opening records from a busy list. |
| Result list | Shows matching records with key dates, references, names, and amounts. | Use it to identify the correct record and compare activity. |
| Open and follow up | Opens the selected record or leads to the next action. | Use it when the list result needs more detail or action. |
Recommended Workflow
- Open the journal or transaction review list.
- Filter by date, account, reference, or transaction type.
- Review the summary line before opening the entry.
- Open the transaction details when account-level explanation is needed.
- Use the result for audit, correction review, or month-end checking.
Best Practice
- Review source documents before changing accounting entries.
- Use transaction details when a balance is unclear.
- Keep references meaningful for later audit work.
