Year-End Close Process: Create Income Statement / Balance Sheet Closing Journals Programs Create a Journal for Each Run, Generating Duplications (Doc ID 2971677.1)

Last updated on SEPTEMBER 06, 2023

Applies to:

Oracle General Ledger - Version 12.0.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.
GLYCCJ2 Close Process - Create Income Statement Closing Journals
GLYCCJ1 General Ledger Close Process - Create Balance Sheet Closing Journals

Symptoms

General Ledger year-end closing process is performed using the two dedicated programs, Close Process - Create Income Statement Closing Journals / Close Process - Create Balance Sheet Closing Journals.

If the programs run multiple times for the same year-end, they create a similar journal after each run. This creates duplicated journals in the system.

The users would expect the programs to run incrementally and create a journal on a second run only if new data has been entered in the system after the previous program's run.

 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

  1. General Ledger responsibility > View > Requests > Submit a new request
  2. Run year-end closing programs, Close Process - Create Income Statement Closing Journals / Close Process - Create Balance Sheet Closing Journals
  3. Journals > Enter > Find > Observe the closing journals created in the system
  4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 in order to run the same program(s) again
  5. Journals > Enter > Find > Observe the closing journals created in the system again, so they are now duplicated
