In NetSuite manually creating statistical journal entries is like manually creating general financial journals with the exception that you do not provide financial specific data. Instead, you areutilizing the unit of measures we previously set up to allocate fees such as monthly rent per department or shipping cost by items sold. When manually creating statistical journals, you are also given the opportunity to make an absolute balance for multiple statistical accounts at the same time.

There are many reasons why a company may want to have dates and periods not match-up.  One common reason may be related to the month-end close process. A company may want to enter the actual date (which is in a prior period) of a vendor bill, but since the previous period has already been closed, they will post to the current period for financial purposes.  NetSuite can allowtransaction dates outside of the posting periods through the company’s Accounting Preferences.  This can increase the risk of unwanted date/period mismatches as well as cause headaches for reconciliations between AR/AP Aging reports to the Balance Sheet.  One way to monitor this is through a Saved Search.
