Use the View GL Activity dialog to list and review all transactions involving a specified general ledger account within the current GL period.
Choose Transaction Entry from the Tasks menu. When the Transactions window is active, choose View GL Activity from the Edit menu or from the F3 or right-click context menu. In the View GL Journal dialog, choose an account by selecting it from the drop-down list, choose one of the two options in the Journals group box, and then click the Continue button to open the View GL Activity dialog.
Note: If the client has been set up to use multiple journals but you wish to see activity only for a specific journal, you must first select that journal from the Transactions window before choosing the View G/L Activity command. Choose the desired journal from the drop-down list in the Journal field at the top of the Transactions window, and then choose the View GL Activity command (or press CTRL+G).
