Cancel a Journal

Use this procedure to cancel a journal.

To perform this procedure, you must have access to Finance & Administration as defined in the User Access Rights submodule under Settings.

To cancel a journal:

  1. On the main toolbar, click Finance & Administration.
  2. In the left pane of the Finance & Administration window, click General Ledger > Journals.
    The List tab is displayed by default.
  3. On the List tab, in the upper pane, select the journal that you want to cancel.
    You can only cancel a journal that is open. You cannot cancel a journal that contains General Ledger records.
  4. Click Cancel Journal.
    A dialog box prompts you to confirm that you want to cancel the journal.
  5. Click Yes to cancel the journal or No if you do not want to cancel it.
    The selected journal is canceled; however, it is not removed from the list of journals.
