Symptom

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the General Ledger work center.
  2. Go to the Reports view.
  3. Go to the List subview.
  4. Search for the G/L Accounts - Line Items Report and run it.

Here, under Journal Entry Header Text and Journal Entry Item Text characteristics, the symbol # (unassigned) is shown.

Cause

In this case, the G/L account is a Purchase in Transit Account. These are temporary accounts as these accounts are not direct posting. Instead, it is a clearing account for the direct postings.

Resolution

This is the expected system behavior.

Purchase in Transit G/L accounts are temporary accounts and these accounts are not direct posting account. Instead, it is clearing account for the direct posting like the supplier invoice and Goods and Service Receipt.
