The Journal Entry Activity Update screen removes records from the temporary Journal Entry files and updates the General Ledger. In order to run this update, the Journal entry # sort option on the Journal Entry Activity Report must be previewed first.

This screen displays only after the Journal Entry Activity Report is run. Once you preview and verify the report for accuracy, continue with the update. "Balanced entry" protection is incorporated into this screen to assure the General Ledger will stay in balance. If debits do not equal credits (for example, if there has been a power failure or data error), the software will display a special screen message and stop the update until the problem is corrected. Consult the support desk at Viewpoint for instructions if it is necessary to correct an out-of-balance error.

If this is a sub-job billed from a master job, the software will read for job-specific setup rates for the master job, and if none are found use standard settings. If this is a sub-job billed at the sub-job level, the software will read for job-specific setup rates for the sub-job first, and if billing rates are not found then the master job, and if none are found there use standard settings.
