The Labor Cost Unpost screen is used to undo a previous post for one or many users. Unposting a previous post will permanently erase any evidence of a particular post. When running an Unpost, there is no audit trail showing that the original post occurred nor will there be any audit trail that an unpost occurred. In brief, this process will delete journal transactions, general ledger entries (if created) and unmark the originating transactions making them available to participate in another post process.
Note that items posted to a closed fiscal period cannot be unposted.
Note: Intercompany (Multi-Entity) posts can be unposted as well.
This screen is available to users having any of the following roles: Administrator, P&R Administrator or GL Admin.
This screen is available with the Project Tracking and Project Portfolio family of Unanet licenses.
Topics covered on this help page include:
Search (to refine the list of time actuals to be included in an unpost)
List (to view additional details or initiate an unpost for one or many users time entries)

When a specific post for an user's time entry is un-done (ie unposted), all journal transactions and general ledger entries related to that specific post are removed from the Unanet Journal and General Ledger. That is, we do not add new entries to reflect a reversal of the original post, but rather those entries that were originally added to the Unanet Journal as a result of the posting activities are simply deleted. There is no audit entry added to the system to reflect that the original post or unpost activity occurred.
Those items having been unposted will be available to be included in a subsequent post.
Note that items posted to a closed fiscal period cannot be unposted.
Do you send extracted journal entries to a downstream system?
For clients sending journal entries to downstream accounting systems, please note that even Extracted journal entries can be unposted. When using the Unpost feature pertaining to Extracted journal entries, the best practice is to make a parallel edit to your accounting system to remove the entry from the accounting system. Once reposted, the data will be picked up and sent from Unanet again to the downstream accounting system.
Once the post is run, the user will see feedback written to the screen that will indicate the users included in the post. Should any unexpected issues be encountered, additional details will be written to the screen for the affected users. Note that any users that encounter an error during the unpost, would result in no items being unposted. Other users within that same run that did not encounter issues would have their data unposted.
