Export a Consumption Journal
In this section, you will see how to export a Consumption Journal.
A Consumption Journal is a file containing Stock Variance transfers to Variances, after a stock take is closed.
The journal is run per period, i.e. the period between stock takes - any transfers to Variance, between a stock take being closed, until it's open again for the next stock take. Hence, the Consumption Journal is only available once a stock take has been closed.
Note: The Consumption Journal Export is only available in SUN 4 format.
To run the Consumption Journal navigate to [Settings] → [Accounts payable], click the [eyeball] icon of your accounts payable system then click [Consumption Journals].

-
Click the [+ Consumption Journal] button in the top left.
-
In the pop-up, select in [Purchaser] your applicable department (all Departments is the whole organisation).
-
Select your [Accounting Period].
-
Click [Save].

Once complete, you will be able to open the file by clicking on the blue [Content] link.

The resulting .TXT file will look as below.
