A Usage Journal is a file containing transfers resulting from Point of Sale data.

The journal is run per period, i.e. the period between stock takes - any transfers between a stock take being closed, until it's open again for the next stock take.

Note: The Accruals Journal Export is only available in SUN 4 format.

To run the Usage Journal navigate to [Settings] > [Accounts payable], click the [eyeball] icon of your accounts payable system then click [Usage Journals].

  1. Click the [+ Usage Journal] button in the top left.

  2. In the pop-up, select in [Purchaser] your applicable department (all Departments is the whole organisation).

  3. Select your [Accounting Period].

  4. Click [Save].

Once complete, you will be able to open the file by clicking on the blue [Content] link.

The resulting .TXT file will look as below.
