The customers would like the Apply/Unapply General Ledger Entry local functionality currently available for France, Belgian, Netherlands etc. to be made available in the UK database (or better in W1 so all localizations get this nice feature)

It seems this was implemented, however it needs some serious work!


FIRST: this may already exist, and I just haven't discovered where it is or how to use it, but there needs to be a way to mark lines as "reviewed" quickly in an entry either when it is uploaded or when it is manually keyed in so it doesn't have to be done line by line afterward.


1) if you are "reviewing" multiple entries via the "select more" three dots, if you want to look for additional entries via different sorting method and click on the column header to sort differently, you will lose all of the currently selected items. Likewise if you click on a column header name and click "help" or basically click away at all before hitting "set selected items as reviewed". It's very frustrating!


2) after you have reviewed, the "reviewed date" updates with the traditional US standard MM/DD/YYYY. However, if you export the list into excel, the date turns to the European(?) custom of DD/MM/YYYY. Either is ok, as long as they are consistent.


3) It would be nice to associate some kind of user-defined ID with the reviewed entries. There is currently a BC-assigned "reviewed identifier" that seems to automatically set to the next consecutive number, but a user-defined character string would help to identify the purpose of the review.


More to follow as I use this feature. It's exceedingly painstaking and slow. I'm grateful to have it, but it really needs work!

Is this still planned? Trying to reconcile balance sheet accounts with years of postings and reclass (especially accounts like Construction In Progress, where individual entries are collected then "pushed" live when the project is put into service into its true asset account) is absolutely horrible. Applying the reclass entries against the original posting of the account would be incredibly helpful.

Still waiting for this functionality! Our previous accounting system included matching of entries on the General Ledger so this is a notable absence in Business Central. We are currently having to use a workaround, setting up customer/vendor accounts within customer/vendor posting groups which post to the relevant GL account, so that we can use the apply entries functionality in the customer/vendor ledger. But not at all ideal.

Please, add this functionality to W1 version. We use it in SLO but it is developed by partners.

Having received questions about this feature from multiple customers, it would be great if this can be added to W1 so all versions can use this feature.

I was indeed flabbergasted to find out a few years ago that this is local NL and BE functionality! I've been wondering why this still has not been upped to W1 functionality, so that all customers can benefit from this functionality, as it might improve their overall view on specific interim GL accounts!

I can't believe this isn't available outside of Europe. I work in a global company and would hugely benefit from being able to do this in our Americas and UK instances of Dynamics. Have been taking advantage of it in the Netherlands instance of Dynamics - I was shocked that I couldn't apply/unapply general ledger entries in our US/UK entities.

Absolutely agree that the ability to apply entries in the General Ledger would be hugely beneficial. Being able to display only open items on balance sheet accounts would make balance sheet reconciliations and basic housekeeping much easier.

Please make a solution, where it is possible to know the open entries at a date in the past. So a similar solution as the detailed customer/vendor entries is needed. Auditors are always requesting list to know the open entries for the balance at a certain date in the past. IT would also be practical if you could Apply a G/L account on a general journal
