Forum Post - Bad Debts Write Off Batch Entry Normal FA Real Time Posting in GL and Journal is when the SAVE button is pressed. Batch method should print registers and check the batch of transactions before posting them to the journals. The workaround in FA to do this is: Take backup Do real time batch import Check the registers and printouts If found to need major record level corrections, then edit in the import source file Restore from earlier backup Re-import after corrections. Item descriptions are not saved when transferring to GL When one issues an invoice with multiple items in it, the description line is not used when printing the GL Account Transactions report. The Item descriptions are not saved when transferring to GL. There is not enough room for this on the transaction line.
