Updates to SQL view to show all GL distributions for AP transactions
I have made a number of updates to my SQL view to show all GL distributions for AP transactions  since I first published it. Some of these were in response to comments asking for additional fields, others were added when I came across new data to test with. Rather than publish another post with the latest revisions, I have updated the code in my original blog post , but I wanted to let everyone know it’s there. Some of the updates are: Added Due To and Due From distribution types for anyone using Intercompany transactions. Added Realized Gain and Realized Loss distribution types for Multicurrency transactions

Fiscal periods should not be named Period 1, Period 2, Period 3, etc. These are the default names assigned by GP when new years are created. These names are editable and are easily changed just by typing into the field.
