Currently when you post a transaction from a sub-ledger (e.g. Sales Invoice or Purchase Invoice), this system summarizes all the line items that hit the same G/L account and post to the G/L as a single line per account. This makes it very difficult to reconcile as the amounts you see in the G/L would not match any individual line from the original transaction. Further, if you select the G/L entry and navigate to the posted transaction, it shows you all line items for that transaction rather than just the line items that make up the specific G/L entry that you're looking at.

We would suggest that all line items get post to the G/L in detail to make it easy to reconcile between the G/L entry and sub-ledger transaction.

Thank you for your feedback. We are not considering the suggestion at this time we don't plan to change current desing. If you want to get more details from General Ledger entries, try running G/L Register report with Show details options turned on.

It is a pity that detailed information from sub-ledger (e.g. lines from posted sales invoice) is not transfered to g/l entries. As a consequence there is no rational approach for an accountant to analyse g/l entries without using navigate-function to see related information.

We especially receive this feedback when external accountants support our customers without knowing their appropriate business cases.

consider this a big vote for this even if you don't count it. May I say that this is a major productivity killer.
