GL: Unpost GL Log

Overview

The GL Log Unpost Question window displays when you click the Unpost button in the Journal Update Log window. In it, you verifies the log #, number of records, debit amount, and credit amount prior to unposting.

Special Note when unposting a Payroll Batch

If you are unposting a Payroll batch, the recurring with limit deductions and compensations are restored as they were before the posting occurred. This will prevent the occurrence of a Recurring With Limit cumulative being updated more than once.

The system will also put back all one-time compensations and deductions that were deleted when the original payroll was posted.

Special Note when unposting an Accounts Payable Checks (APC) batch

You can unpost an APC batch even if there are checks in that batch marked as "voided", but you CANNOT unpost an AP Void Check batch.
