GL Export Batch

Navigator > Tasks > General Ledger > Export Batch

You can export Transaction Batches using the Accredo GL Batch format. Batches can be exported to other Accredo Systems (or other software applications if an interface is available). For example, importing into another Accredo System for multi-Company consolidation. This is not usually required for a single Accredo system, it is provided as a way of transferring information between Systems. Select the batch to be exported from the Lookup. This can include both posted and unposted batches. If there are a number of batches to export (for example, all unposted batches), apply a filter to the Lookup, see Import Batch.

If Period for Posting is specified the batch will import into that period number in the Current year in the System you import into. If Period for Posting is empty or zero in the header the Period for the batch derived during import from the latest date seen in the batch lines, falling back to current period GL if period for date is not found. You can edit the Batch header after import to change the period if necessary, see Import Batch.
