Enter your journal information. Alternatively, you can set up a default category, default ledger and accept all default batch and journal information to enter lines directly.

After you enter the first journal entry line number, General Ledger automatically increments the numbers for the following lines. You can change the line numbers as necessary.
Enter an Account for the journal line. Your data access set must provide read and write access to the ledger, or read and write access to the account's balancing segment value or management segment value.
Enter the Debit or Credit amount for the designated account.
Note: If needed, you can enter debits and credits as negative amounts.
If you enabled the General Ledger descriptive flexfields, enter additional descriptive information about the journal line.

Use Journals - Captured Information to enter additional information about journal lines with certain natural account segment values.
