Summary GL Comparison Report

 

Summary

 

The Summary GL Comparison Report displays discrepancies between the UB accounts receivable amount and the GL amount. This report can be filtered by journal entry date and the results are organized by date and batch number. If there is a discrepancy between the UB and the GL, it will be noted by a sequence of three asterisks in the final column.

 

If discrepancies are discovered, you can run the UB GL Comparison report to investigate the individual batches or journal entries where the discrepancies occurred.
