Adding an Execution Id

Overview

Use this job aid to add an execution Id. The execution id is a feature that links transactions together by assigning a value to a common box. The execution Id determines the types of transactions that are linked together. A box in the Chart of Accounts determines if transactions are to be tracked for specific ledger accounts. A report similar to a general ledger report or an income statement can be produced for each execution Id. Transactions assigned to the same execution id are grouped together on this report. Since an execution Id may represent a project or a piece of equipment, the profit/loss may be easily reported for the project or piece of equipment or a listing of vouchers with G/L distribution to a specific expense account. In order to produce any of the Execution Id Reports, a work file containing the transactions must be created. The work file contains only those transactions that existed at time of the creation of the work file. Any transactions that are entered or posted in the dataset after the creation of the work file will not be included in the Execution Id Reports. Purged and deleted transactions are not included in the work file.
