General ledger
The general ledger contains all expenses for your organization for all fiscal periods.
The general ledger contains these types of expenses:
- Staged expenses that you imported from your external source. Imported expenses are saved in the General Ledger Staged Data [itfm_gl_data_staged] table.
- Cleansed expenses that the workbench uses during the Data Cleansing stage. Changes to expenses during this stage are saved in the General Ledger Cleansed Data [itfm_gl_data_cleansed] table. Each time you add an expense to the General Ledger Staged Data table, a corresponding expense is created in this table.
- Groomed expenses that the workbench uses during the Bucketing stage. Changes to expenses during this stage are saved in the Groomed General Ledger Data [itfm_gl_data_groomed] table. This is also used for non-General Ledger expenses to hold the amounts manually entered through the workbench or to enter the amounts directly.
