Create Recurring Entries
Use the Create Recurring Entries routine during period end to generate live journal entry transactions from the recurring entry templates created during Recurring-Standard Entries Maintenance. A recurring entry is a convenient method for creating journal entries that are the same every period.

Note: The Create Recurring Entries process sets a flag for every recurring journal entry template to prevent you from accidentally running it more than once during a period. To reset all the flags so you can run Create Recurring Entries again for a specific period, use Recurring Entries Maintenance.
Tip: If the Create Recurring Entries report prints No Records Found That Qualify, and you are certain the records exist, the flag may need to be reset.
Tips:
The templates for recurring entry transactions specify the RC Journal Code.
The amounts are exactly the same for every period.
You can not override the amounts in this program.
Examples: Depreciation, prepaid insurance.
