Training Tidbit: How do I complete an account inquiry within General Ledger?
Use the account inquiry feature within the Chart of Accounts option in General Ledger to view all the transactions and balances (beginning, ending, and unencumbered) for a specific account number. To complete an account inquiry, first select the Maintenance menu from the General Ledger screen and then Chart of Accounts. Enter the desired account number in the Chart of Account Number field, or click the down-arrow button or the Find button to select the correct one. Then click the Inquiry tab to view all the transactions and the balances for the specified account number for the latest fiscal year. To print the information for the account inquiry, complete a print screen, print grid, or print an Account Inquiry report from the Reports menu.
Tip: To view the transactions and balances for a different fiscal year, click the down-arrow button for the Fiscal Year End field and select the desired year; then advance out of the field.
Note: For Iowa school districts who reverse GAAP expense only, select the Include Reversing GAAP Entries field to also display any reversing GAAP entries for the selected account number.
