    Hi Doria,
    Unfortunately yes. The BFM Journal Generation has been changed to a batch
    only Job. This means it runs on the back end server and it means if you
    lose your interactive session or the internet drops out for any reason,
    then the Job will continue to run on the server without interruption to
    completion. This was changed to a back end batch process as drop outs
    during the long interactive posting method were causing some Data integrity
    issues. Unfortunately this means reports will be emailed to you on
    completion instead of interactively displayed. We are however working
    towards a user based Active Job Viewer that will allow you to watch the
    progress of batch Jobs running in the background.
    cheers
    Andrew
