The [[http://wiki.openpro.com/doku.php?id=products:financial:gl-app-guide|Batch GL Entry]] screen enables you to enter, review, and post multiple entries to the General Ledge in a multi-line format.

A single journal entry may consist of any number of accounts, so the screen is divided into two parts. Everything above the horizontal line applies to the entry as a whole. Everything below the second horizontal line is a scrollable area in which you can enter as many accounts as required (use the “5 more lines” button to add more account fields).
