Journal generation

Amortization Journal Creation option enables us to create Amortization Journal. It reads the amortization balance file and posts the amortization values to the General Ledger via the General Ledger Interface file at GL EOD. 

This program posts a reversal journal for ‘Capitalise’ transactions. When the ISBN is changed in the project/spec, this will reverse and amortize the difference. If the G/L definition changes, the system will reverse the old amounts and posts the new amounts to the G/L based on the G/L definition.
