Define Accounting Journal
Explanation

types are to be included in each journal. All the voucher types except the
voucher type(s) that are connected only to the Internal Ledger can be connected to the

journal.
Furthermore it is not possible to change the voucher types included in the
accounting journal if any of the accounting years are partly generated.
Prerequisites
In order to perform this activity, voucher type(s) to be included should have already been defined.
