General Ledger Year-End Procedures

Saving General Ledger Month-End Reports

In General Ledger, you can customize reports and set up a Report View for month-end reports.

At the end of each month, you can print these reports by clicking Define Views and selecting the month-end report view. This saves time because you no longer need to set up each report every month and print reports individually.

At year-end, you can use these same month-end reports as your year-end reports. The information that you post in ACS is cumulative, so when you select to print a report for the month of December, or for the last month of your fiscal year, the information in that report represents all activity in ACS for the entire year.

  2. In the drop-down list, select General Ledger and click Go .
