Journal Entry

This toolkit supports those departments that have infrequent, regular or large monthly journal entry financial transactions that includes entering and editing journal entries online, budget checking and posting.

You may notice the navigation in myUFL is different than what is shown in these training resources.  Rest assured, these changes are primarily look and feel differences. All policies and procedures discussed in these materials are accurate and up to date. Training materials will be updated to reflect the new look and menu of myUFL.
