Pre-Posting Previews & GL Simulation

Start with a draft sales invoice, supplier bill, customer or supplier payment, or manual journal. Make sure you can open that record and review its accounting preview.

1. 1
   Open the draft and select its accounting preview when available.
2. 2
   Compare debit/credit lines, currency, tax, source amount and accounting period with the underlying document.
3. 3
   Compare each debit and credit account with the type of transaction you are about to post.
4. 4
   If a line is unexpected, return to the document or Accounting Settings, correct the cause, and preview again.
5. 5
   Resolve missing mappings or imbalances, then run the separate Post action when approved.

A preview is the last chance to catch a wrong mapping before the journal becomes part of the ledger.

Previewing does not post the document. When you are ready, use the separate Post action; KariVast checks the document again at that point.

WARNING: A preview is a calculation at that moment. Recheck after editing the draft or changing account settings before posting.

If the preview fails, correct the indicated account mapping, tax, currency or period condition.

Do not post to see whether an uncertain preview resolves itself; ask Finance to review the source and mapping.
