The journal should be imported in the same way as a journal with less than 500 lines, there is no difference. There are however several things to watch out for with journals with more than 500 lines. Firstly the file NL.ijtxn needs to have enough unused records available for the amount of lines to be imported. This can be checked by navigating to the following
•From the Master Menu, select the Nominal Ledger option and the Company required
•Select System Maintenance from the Nominal leder main menu
•Select File Usage Statistics from the System maintenance menu
•Review the values for this file
There have been several problems in the past with large journals losing lines and posting non balancing daybooks even though it shows as balancing on the screen when posted. Check the issues database for any relevant fixes. Causes of the system losing lines are scrolling up and down when in the Edit and post journal screen, amending any lines or deleting/cutting and pasting lines in the Edit and post screen. If all the above are ok then the system should import a journal with more than 500 lines with no problems.
