GLX has always accumulated the data.  It has nothing to do with whether Business status is used.   We just chose to use data that was already being collected when we developed the business status.

The GLX file was introduced by DBA back in 2001 or 2002 when the added the option to turn off accounting.  All the detail that posts to accounting now also posts to the GL-X file and is used for the AI-C and AI-D reports which were designed for making journal entries from DBA into another accounting system.  We use them for some of the business status entries because certain types of transaction detail posting to the GL can be turned off in AD-A.
