Journal Entries should save User ID with record.

When a GL entry is made, the Logged-in User ID is not stored. For Audit reasons, we've been asked "Who made the entry". JobBOSS does not record the user ID. I've been able to reconstruct an audit trail for Journal entries that are automatically created by the system, such as AR invoices or AP invoices, by joining the appropriate tables to a query. However, when a journal entry is created in Accounting, such as for month close reconciliation, the person entering the transaction is not recorded. There should be a field in the table "Journal_Entry" which records the User ID of the person who is entering the transaction. Regardless of whether it's done from the JE function or whether it's from AP or AR or material receiving, etc.

    I totally agree, i am very surprised it does not have this capability.
