Accolent ERP allows Standard GL Adjustments to be entered into a CSV and imported into the system. Once imported the GL Adjustment entries will be posted to the General Ledger. This import capability has particular applicability to GL Adjustments that are made each month (e.g., recording depreciation). The GL Adjustment import cannot be used for recurring or reversing entries, these need to be made manually. Accolent ERP data Import Template Instructions provide field-by-field information on the data needed to fill out the CSV templates. Always review these instructions before populating a CSV import template.
