Capability of inserting rows in journal entry.
I would like for this functionality to be added as it would make journal entry a lot easier. Being able to keep journal entry sets together helps with reconciliation and being able to make sure my debits and credits are in balance within the entry set. The way it is set up now doesn't allow for this, as we are only able to add additional lines at the top and everything pushes down. So if I have a payroll entry numbered 1 thru 5 and then add additional payroll entries (6 thru 15) and I realize I missed recording overtime on the entry number 1 thru 5, I would like to be able to go and insert line 6 and add the missing information and the numbering for the other entries to renumbered instead of the missing entry being line 16!

It is great that you will add this functionality to JEs. Also, when you upload a journal entry from an Excel sheet, it does not look in the same order when you open the same journal entry in FENXT. Please consider working on this too!
Very glad this has been moved to planned - hopefully it will be completed soon!
Has anyone else noticed that when you post the transactions aren't in the same order as entered? Lines purposely grouped together in the entry get reordered ...? That needs to be addressed, too!
Extension of the database general ledger journal entry access should be extended until this feature is active in NXT!! when is the estimated time to have this in NXT?
I too would like this feature added back. I suppose you could duplicate all of the lines up to the point where you would like to insert the new row and then delete all of the rows you don't want and then overwrite the one duplicate row with the information that you actually want there. Doesn't seem very efficient to me. I would much rather be able to insert a row where it is needed.
Please consider this functionality ASAP or do not remove it from Database. Blackbaud is degrading functionality through the move to NXT when the features do not move!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used the insert line feature pretty frequently to organize correcting entries as well as many others to zero accounts out. It is much cleaner to see both the debit and credit entries above/below each other to verify they agree. It would also be useful to globally change partial Journal descriptions to limit time waste so changing each line description individually is not required.
I use the insert line in the journal entry quite frequently.
Wow, I assumed I was being obtuse and couldn't figure out how to rearrange the lines of a JE in NXT. This is such an obvious feature. Being unable to copy a JE from a previous month because it needs a new line inserted at the top is obscene. Not being able to insert new lines into my JE makes me want to insert expletives here. X''[
I like all the features on the older version, YES to the insert rows.
Insert rows within a journal entry - YES!
Please add this feature to NXT.
It is now February 1st, 2024.....I'm trying to add a row in the middle of my NXT journal entry and it's still not possible. It keeps putting it at the bottom of the journal entry. How is this possible? Does Blackbaud read, or even care about, these??? Sincerely, Disappointed.
We regularly add rows in the middle of journal entries to keep them in the order we want them to be in. I think this is normal accounting. This has been an idea for a couple years. I hope it will be addressed in the near future.
This is critical to our functionality. We switch back to the database side weekly if not daily because of either updated information for an entry that was previously made or to keep our batch information in date order when we receive information. Having to duplicate and delete large entries in order to do this in the web-based side is too cumbersome.
Journal entries are backup which could be referred to in the future, sometimes multiple times. Not having the flexibility to add rows/lines wherever we need them, so that the entry flows in logical order, makes it very difficult to analyze an entry, especially a lengthy one. I don't recall ever working with an accounting program that didn't allow you to do this (including database view).
