What This Process Does


  • Changes receipt journal identifications for selected receipts individually or in mass.
  • A Receipt Journal ID can also be changed directly from the Receipts Master.
  • No processes have to be undone when using this process.
  • This process will not change any information, other than the Journal ID, on the Receipt.


Best Practices


  • Journal IDs – Journal IDs (Journal Identifications) are recommended for grouping similar receipts together. This can be very useful for querying and reporting purposes, as well as setting up default Bank IDs and account codes. In the event that a receipt was created with the incorrect Journal ID, follow this process to change the Journal ID.
