Summary

This article explains how to check whether items that have been posted in the Sales Ledger and Purchase Ledger have been updated to the Nominal Ledger.

More Information

The Nominal Ledger can be updated from the Sales Ledger and Purchase Ledger in two ways.

  • You can update as and when you choose. This has the advantage of allowing you to edit certain parts of Sales Ledger and Purchase Ledger transactions before you update them to the Nominal Ledger.
  • It can be updated immediately depending on how your financial period is set.
  • Any Nominal Ledger journals update the Nominal Ledger automatically when you post them.

Go to " Sales Ledger Customer History" and find a document posted in the relevant month.

  • Select the relevant document and press <Shift+F2>.
  • Look in the top right of this screen and look for the line that says "Nom. Update:".
  • If this is set to 'No', then the Nominal Update has not been done on this item.
  • Go to " Sales Ledger Maintenance Options Nominal Ledger Update" to "push" any transactions that have not been updated across to the Nominal Ledger. Before you do this, check that your financial period is set correctly.
  • Go back to " Nominal Ledger" and check again for the items. They should now appear.
  • For Purchase Ledger items, follow the same process.

Reasons for Problem

The most common cause of this issue is due to the way the Daybook is printed. Normally the Daybook should be printed using Option '2' in the " Daybook" listing screen. If Option '1' has been used at any time, then you will need to use " Sales Ledger Maintenance Options Nominal Ledger Update" to update these items to the Nominal Ledger.

Other causes include having your financial period set incorrectly. If your financial period is set to June, anything posted in Sales Ledger or Purchase Ledger with a July date or later will not be updated to the Nominal Ledger.
