Large Journals Overview

The Large Document Processing functionality enables you to override the usual journal line limits and create journals with up to 9,980 lines.

The existing journal functionality allows journals with up to 250 lines to be created and posted immediately and synchronously; journals with more lines, up to the default limit of 1,000, can be queued using the Background Posting Scheduler and posted asynchronously.

For journals with Large Document Processing enabled, journals with up to 1,000 lines can be posted immediately and synchronously, and journals with up to 9,980 lines can be queued and posted asynchronously in batches using the Background Posting Scheduler.

Note:
Journals with Large Document Processing enabled are referred to as large journals in the FinancialForce Accounting Help.
Warnings:

The maximum number of journal lines that can be supported will depend on the version of Salesforce being used and the other FinancialForce Accounting features that are enabled, such as intercompany accounts, Primary (Live) Update balance type, and reconciliation histories. We recommend using the Primary (On Demand) Update balance type when using large journals. For more information, see About Balance Update.

If a local chart of accounts structure is enabled, the maximum number of journal lines is 4,990.

For more information about journals, see What is a Journal?
