Display balance definitions and round balances
The Balance Definitions screen displays the journal entry types that Engagement Manager includes in the calculation of each balance type. Engagement Manager always includes the unadjusted balance amount plus the specified journal entry types for each balance definition.
Follow these steps to display the balance definitions and to round current period balances to the nearest dollar.
