You can assign reason codes to individual transactions. You may want to use reason codes only for certain transactions or you may want to assign a different reason code to a transaction than the code assigned to the journal batch or journal template.
To assign a reason code to a journal line
- In the Search box, enter General Journal, for example, and then choose the related link. You can add reason codes to other journals as well. 
- On the journal line, select a code in the Reason Code field. If the Reason Code column is not visible, open the shortcut menu for the column headings, and then choose Choose Columns. 
- Select Reason Code from the list of available columns, choose the Add button, and move the column up or down to where you want it.
