A Journal Source represents the link between a journal entry and the underlying financial record (the "source") that produced it. When a journal report is generated, each source record such as a Transaction or Expected Payment that contributes to a journal entry is tracked as a Journal Source. This provides an audit trail from summarized accounting entries back to the original financial activity.
