Although it is located within the Accounts Receivable menu, this module has the ability to pull data from all areas such as Sales, Purchasing, Inventory, and others.

1. Main View (Transaction Report Center)

The main page of this module is an interactive report equipped with various filtering tools to help you find specific data.

Advanced Filter Functions

Date From / To: Specify a date range to limit the transaction period.
Chart Of Accounts: Filter transactions that only affect a specific account (e.g., the Accounts Receivable account).
Cost Center & Project: Filter transactions that are only allocated to a specific department or project.
Journal Status: Choose to display journals with a specific status (e.g., already approved).

Table Column Explanation

The main table will display the details of each journal line, including Journal Number, Account, Debit, Credit, Cost Center, and columns that mark its source module (such as Sales, Purchase, etc.).

Main Button Functions

Search: To apply the filters you have selected.
Export To MS Excel / Export To CSV File: An important feature to download the displayed data for further processing outside the system.
Print: To print the displayed report.

2. Usage Example (Case Study)
