anyone know if having a custom segment on a source transaction for an amortization journal will transfer to the amortization journal? we had some journal entries with a custom segment and it does not seem to get copied over properly to the resulting amortization journal

That's supposed to be supported per this doc. So if nothing else you can file a case. Is the custom segment visible on the JE form that Amortization schedules are using? Also, do you have the custom segment exposed to JE lines in general via the segment setup? I believe it was mostly around reporting, but there used to be some weird issues that would occur if you didn't have it set up to be used on JEs. So I got used to just setting it up to be on JEs and then hiding the field off the form if I truly didn't need it on JEs.

yes its exposed on both the originating journal and the amortization journal
i opened a ticket with NS so we'll see what they say
@RJMNS so for future reference: NS support told me that it is NOT supported (custom segments for amortization journals)

Ah jerks. They should update their documentation then. I could have sworn I've done that in the past. Sucks either way. Thanks for the info. My company is kicking around using amortization schedules so this might come up.
