Recodes and Accruals This gem in the  Financial Reporting Enterprise module  has gone largely undiscovered since its release in 2015. It provides a  highly intuitive and user-friendly mechanism for users to request journal recodes  (i.e. corrections to journals posted to the incorrect Cost Centre or Account, as well as corrections to incorrect journal amounts)  and accruals  (i.e. requests for journals to be raised for items not yet invoiced).  These requested recodes and accruals appear in the admin module, waiting for the Administrator to either approve or reject each request, before generating an export of the approved Recode and accrual journal entries, which can be used to import* into the general ledger system. Feedback is automatically visible by end users once recodes and accruals have been approved or rejected. This functionality is freely available to all Financial Reporting Enterprise users, and can be set up and ready to use within minutes....

Important Notice:   Microsoft has officially ended support for MS SQL 2012.   As we are sure you are already aware, as of July 12, 2022, Microsoft has officially ended support for MS SQL 2012.   Support for Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 will end on October 10, 2023.   Why must we upgrade to a later version of MS SQL? End of support means regular security updates will no longer be provided. With cyberattacks becoming more sophisticated and frequent, running applications and data on unsupported versions can create significant security and compliance risks.   What does this mean in terms of our investment in IDU? In the future, customers running SQL 2012 or earlier may not have access to new releases of IDU, including new features and functionality released in the system. We would therefore highly recommend that customers upgrade to the most current versions for better performance, efficiency, and regular security updates.   Please advise your IDU Consultant...
