Copy Posted Sessions

Access this form using Activities>Manage Sessions>Copy Posted Sessions.

Use this form to copy a posted session, including all documents within that session. For example, you might want to copy a session because it is a recurring type entry, such as depreciation. Or, you might want to copy a session as part of correcting a previous error.

The copied session is generated with a status of Batch-To Post, even if the Administrator chose an alternate processing mode on the Organization>Organization Preferences form. You need to post the session using Activities>Manage Sessions>Post Transactions.

 

Select Session to Copy

  • Transaction: Enter a valid transaction type, or select one from the drop-down list.
  • Session ID: Enter a valid session ID for the transaction type, or select one from the drop-down list.

  • Currency: The system displays the currency type of the session being copied, such as USD, CAD, EUR, GBP, or MXN. The system displays a currency type of ANY if the session has documents with more than one currency type. Currencies were created and activated by the Administrator using the Organization>Currency Setup form.
  • Rate Type: The system displays the default exchange rate type assigned on the Maintain>Multicurrency>Exchange Rate Types form. However, the rate type can be changed if the Use Original Effective Date check box is cleared.
  • Description: Accept the default description from the original session, or enter a description for the new session.
  • Use Original Document Date, New Document Date, Use Original Effective Date, New Effective Date: Select Use Original Document/Effective Date to use the source date (from the original documents in the session you are copying), or enter a New Document/Effective Date.
  • If the processing mode is online, the session you are copying posts immediately following completion of this form.
  • Prohibit and Warn dates do not apply to this form. These dates were set up by the Administrator using the Organization>Organization Preferences>Entry Dates tab.
