Grid LayoutOpens the Saved Grid Layout menu that allows the user to select another saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to a grid, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Saved Grid Layout icon and save the changes to the grid layout and name the new layout. The new layout can also be set as the default, instead of the System View. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific).

The list of potential Statuses changes depending on the transaction type.  The Statuses that apply to transaction in this List View include:

New: This is the default Status for all new Transactions. While in the Status of 'New' transactions are considered open and all editable fields are open for edit, no posting or approval validations are performed, GL Dates are not assigned, and journal entries are not created. If the transaction was moved back from Approved to New, the GL Date will be assigned and a Journal Entry will exist.  

Approved: Performs all the data validations required to post the transaction and applies to all Transactions. While in the Status of 'Approved' transactions are considered open but have limited fields open for edit. If one or more validations fail, messages are provided indicating what needs to be corrected. If all the validations pass, then all the fields are disabled except for the Status lookup (and any fields that are always editable), journal entries are created/updated, journal ID's are assigned to the journal entry, and blank 'GL Dates' are assigned.

Ready to Post: Runs the Approval validations and applies to all transactions. While in the Status of 'Ready to Post' transactions are considered closed and all the fields are disabled with the exception of a few fields that are always editable. If one or more validations fail, messages are provided indicating what needs to be corrected. If all the validations pass, then all the fields are disabled with the exception any fields that are always editable and updates the Transaction Status to "Posted".

Posted: Signifies the transaction has been posted and/or applied to a transactions (e.g. Payment Receipt). When a transaction is posted, it updates the General Ledger and/or On Hand Item Balances. While in the Status of 'Posted' transactions are considered closed and all the fields are disabled with the exception of a few fields that are always editable.

Void: Signifies a previously posted transaction has been voided. This status is only available for transactions that support voiding posted records (not all transactions support this). Voided transactions remain in the database and can be viewed from history inquiries.

Deleted: Signifies the transaction has been deleted. When a user deletes an open transaction, in some instances the transaction is not removed from the database but is changed to a Status of 'Deleted'. Deleted transactions are not visible from transaction list views but can be found in inquiries. Transaction in the Status of 'Deleted' are only used a information. 

Replaced: Signifies the transaction was voided or corrected. When a transaction is corrected or Voided, the Status of the original transaction is changed to 'Replaced' and a new transaction is cloned and marked as 'Void'. This is done to ensure that a reversal journal entry can be created and posted in an open fiscal period to record the Void.
