Actions on Journal Entries

Return to Models Overview

The journal can be inspected using database queries. The queries support filtering for one or more fields of the journal entry header. The query result is visualized in tabular form, showing the fields of the journal entry header.

The result of the query can be used for subsequent actions. Some of these actions can be processed on an arbitrary selection of the query result, containing one, multiple or all journal entries of the query. The actions can only be performed if the prerequisites (e.g. the status) are met.
