Create a new GL Coding template.

Note: it’s often the case that customers have multiple versions of a GLCoding template. Version control the build by adding the date to the name of the GLCoding template.

Scheduled reports are typically sent weekly in both csv and pdf format. These can be created and scheduled within the user dashboard (i.e. login as Customer) and navigate to the reports dashboard.
