A. You may deselect the Prevent Direct Balance Update check box for the AA ledger; however, similar to the creation of a one-sided journal entry, allowing direct balance updates to the AA ledger should be used with extreme caution and restricted to only senior levels of the organization.

B. Instead of changing the Ledger Type Setup, simply navigate to the budget programs, change the ledger type from BA to AA and make necessary updates. This will eliminate the need to continually update the Prevent Direct Balance Update check box.

C. Once initially set, the Prevent Direct Balance Update check box cannot be changed for any ledger type.

D. The Prevent Direct Balance Update check box must be selected for the AA ledger.

E. Amount and corresponding unit ledgers must both be updated or error messages will be displayed; for example, if allowing direct balance updates for the AA ledger you must also allow direct balance updates to the AU ledger.
