Changing report used to print General Journal Test Report

darrinkatz · 2009-11-10

Hi everyone,

Would you please point out how to change the report used by General Ledger -> General Journals -> Posting -> Test Report? Currently "Report 2 General Journal - Test" is used and I would like to change it to a different report object.

I would like to be able to answer these questions on my own in the future. Where is this information documented?

Thank you very sincerely for your time,
Darrin

That's set up in the Journal Template

You can change the default report on test reports on table 80.

Well regular users wouldn't open table 80 directly. They would open the "Journal Templates" form from the administration menu, and I'm sure it's also available somewhere in financial management. The report is set up in the "Test Report ID" field, which is not visible by default.

Daniel,

Thanks for your reply. I am unfortunately having trouble making this change.

I have gone to Administration -> Application Setup -> Financial Management -> General -> Journal Templates, however I do not see where I can select a report object for the General Journal.

I have also gone to Administration -> Application Setup -> Financial Management -> FA Journal Templates, however I am not able to add any entries to this table.

Could you please show me how to find the table you are referring to?

Thanks!

Hi Alex,

By going to the Object Designer I was able to find Table 80 and make this change. Where would I have found this information in the documentation?

Thanks again,
Darrin

As I said before:

To make fields visible in a form in the Classic Client, right click the column header and select 'show column...', put a checkmark by the field and click OK.

By the way, table 80 is the base table for the "Journal Templates" form. You are looking at the same data whether you open the table directly (not supposed to do this as a regular user) or using the form (which is the recommended way for regular users to use the system).
