About this Course
This one-day course explores the Microsoft Dynamics SL General Ledger and the accounting cycle and the processes required to enter financial data into the system. This course also shows students how to perform additional functions such as account/subaccount validation, budgeting, allocation, month-end closing, and consolidation.
A thorough understanding of these topics helps students streamline monthly and year-end closing processes by learning how to automate routine activities such as account allocations and reports.
