Release Screen
(Note: The screens may vary in appearance by the type of transaction but basically contain the same information).  On some transaction types there will be one grid and on others there will be a second grid showing the details of the transactions.  The data can be sorted in various ways by clicking on the column headers that are in bold font.  Some types of transactions will allow users to drill back to the source in which the transactions originated from, such as Purchase Order, Sales Order, Work Order, etc.  Those will be shown with an underline font. 
 
 

All transactions are checked to be released by default.  Once you have selected the records to be released, Depress the "Release Selected Records to GL".  The records selected to be released will be removed from the release screen and the records not selected to be released will stay on screen.  This button is only available when this screen is in the "Edit" mode.

Beginning Date

The Beginning Date is automatically set to the oldest transaction.  Changing these dates filters the selection so that only those transactions within the date range are displayed.
