This example uses two entities, Entity 1000 and Entity 2000. The entities have the following additional GL numbering settings:

The entities use the following GL periods:

The entities use the following daybooks:

At the end of 2009, Entity 1000 and Entity 2000 contain the following postings:

You run GL Sequence Renumber for Entity 1000 for periods 200911 and 200912. Entity 1000 is the numbering source for both Entity 1000 and Entity 2000. The following sequence numbers are assigned:

Postings 1000-N03, 1000-N05, and 2000-N04 are not assigned sequence numbers because the daybooks to which they are posted belong to layers that are excluded from additional GL numbering.

Posting 2000-N01 is assigned sequence number 000000001 because it has the earliest numbering date.

Postings 1000-N04, 2000-N03, 1000-N02, and 2000-N05 have the same numbering date, and their sequence numbers are assigned in order by daybook code, and then by entity code.

This example uses correction postings for Entity 1000 and Entity 2000.

The following are the correction postings:

Using Journal Entry Approve, you approve postings 1000-C03, 1000-C04, and 1000-C05, and specify their numbering date as 20100331. Posting 1000-C06 does not need to be approved at this time so you manually modify its numbering date to 20100331.

In addition, Entity 1000 and Entity 2000 contain the following normal postings in GL periods 2010/01 to 2010/02:

You try to run GL Sequence Renumber for Entity 1000 for GL periods 201001 to 201002. The renumbering process fails for 1000-C01 and 1000-C02 because these postings must be numbered within GL period 200912 before you can proceed to renumber GL periods 201001 and 201002.

You run GL Sequence Renumber again for GL period 200912, and the system creates the following numbered postings:

Finally, you run GL Sequence Renumber for Entity 1000 for GL periods 201001 to 201002. The system creates the following numbered postings:

 

On April 6, 2010, you run Year-End Closing Execute (25.21.4.1), and specify the numbering date as March 31, 2010. The system creates the following closing postings:

You run GL Sequence Renumber for Entity 1000 for GL period 201003. Entity 1000 is the numbering source for both Entity 1000 and Entity 2000. The following sequence numbers are assigned:
