The journal entry detail screen allows the entry of the detail transactions for the journal specified on the previous header screen.  The detail screen contains the account/center to be posted to, the debit or credit amount, the statistical quantity, unit of measure, reference fields, and control information carried over from the header.

Journal detail lines may be added, modified and deleted and new blank lines may be displayed by hitting the Roll Up key.  A journal must be ended before another journal can be initiated or reviewed.  In review any lines existing on the journal transaction file are displayed.
