Overview
This feature allows rebuilding General Ledger (GL) balance data. The GL table stores the calculated balances which are entered in the system by different transactions. Rebuild General Ledger recalculates the GL balances to evaluate any inconsistency or mismatch in the GL balances.
A screenshot of the Rebuild Opening Balances Only feature is available here. Application users select the fiscal year that needs to validate. Rebuild Opening Balances Only is to be selected to rebuild only GL opening balances. Clicking on the Proceed button validates the GL balances and shows errors.
Users access Rebuild General Ledger form within the menu through this navigation path: Admin ► Periodic Processes ► Rebuild General Ledger.
