Road Map: GL Register Scheduler

Use the GL Register Scheduler (GJJOB) program to set options for running general ledger registers automatically with the Job Schedule Maintenance (JOBS). See Background for more information.

Before you run this program each time

You should run these programs:

  • Recurring Journal Processing (GRP) to process recurring journals set up in the Recurring Journal Maintenance (GRM) program

  • General Journal Entry (GIP) to print the general journal entries that you entered and to post the entries to the GL; also run from General Journal Entry (GIP) and GL Period-End Closing (GME)

  • Allocating Journal Processing (GAP) to process allocating journals

  • Closed Period Adjustments (GIC) to enter a general journal adjustment or correction to a closed period

  • Automatic Journal Maintenance (GMI) to maintain automatic journal postings prior to updating GL.

Before you run this program the first time

You should run these programs:

  • System Options Maintenance (XM) (GL Journal Options) to set options for updating the general ledger.

  • System Options Maintenance (XM) (Enterprise Options) to select a date display format for your enterprise, Branch Maintenance (TBM) to select a date display format for your branch, or User Maintenance (UIM) to select a date display format for an individual user.

  • GL Account Maintenance (GMM) to set up GL organization codes and GL accounts.

  • Posting Criteria Maintenance (XPC) to set up posting criteria and accounts that programs use to post to the general ledger.

  • GL Register Scheduler (GJJOB) set parameters for running general ledger registers automatically with the Job Schedule Maintenance (JOBS) program.

  • Job Schedule Maintenance (JOBS) to set up a job stream names and the scheduling frequencies.

  • Output Device Maintenance (XDM) to set up the output devices that you plan to use.

  • Date-Output Device Maintenance (ZE) to select your default output device and set whether you can override that device.

After you run this program

  • Job Schedule Maintenance (JOBS) to create job streams.

  • XM System Options Maintenance (GL Journal Options) to select Allow automatic scheduling?, enter the User ID for email notification and Job stream name, set the Create new batch? option, enter the From trans date and To trans date, and set print options for registers scheduled for an automatic run.

  • Scheduled Register Log Inquiry (GJLQ) program to display a log of general ledger registers run automatically.
