global change in general ledger in NXT

LeeAnn Schmidtberger

I am just checking to see if anyone knows if the ability to do global changes in the journal entries will be available in NXT as in the database? This is vital to have it included as an option since it would be very tedious to change multiple lines by hand if a change or correction is needed in a journal entry, which could involve hundreds of lines.

When I read the below Knowledgebase article I get the idea that global change will not be available in FENXT in the same form it was in database view. To obtain the same result in web view you will need to do a global change using an export and then an import update.

Total Web Solution - Out of Scope from Database View

The following list of capabilities in database view are currently deferred and out of scope for completion of Total Web Solution delivery. See detail below on these items and the modern way in webview to achieve the same end goals or detail on why it is deferred functionality.  

Tip: You still have the opportunity to vote/submit these items to the IdeaBank to request they be integrated into webview. Based on demand, our strategy around these features could shift.

• Global Change
  • As import functionality is now available for web view, we plan to utilize the 'update existing records' functionality to meet your global change use cases.

"Financial Edge 7 must be used to globally change records; this is not possible from within Financial Edge NXT."

I guess this must be that enshittification that everybody's talking about.
