PeopleSoft Lease Administration enables you to view all transactions posted to the RE_STLINE_GL table, which is a staging table. When PeopleSoft General Ledger runs the Journal Generator process, the system picks up the transactions on the RE_STLINE_GL table and sends the transactions to PeopleSoft General Ledger.
Although transactions are posted to the staging table, not all transactions are generated to the general ledger until PeopleSoft General Ledger runs the Journal Generator process. You can view the transaction status as well as the general ledger distribution status. The transaction status displays whether the transaction has been picked up by the Journal Generator in PeopleSoft General Ledger and any outstanding transactions that is still in pending status. You can also view the accounting distribution information related to the transaction.
Use the Posted Straightline Accounting page (RE_STGL_VIEW) to view transactions posted to the staging tables and also transactions posted to the general ledger through the Journal Generator.
