    Hi, without knowing your exact use case it is hard to give you the most appropriate advice. Posting journals is my preferred option. Despite that, one can consider setting up an new base entity below the parent you plan to manually enter data to. This mostly goes in line with the process and the requirements. This entity E#xyz_parent_adj can have its own workflow and can be written to individually by e.g. group users and also locked accordingly. 

    I would assume that one or a handful of such entities suffice, depending on your data model in case entering or loading journals is not an option.

Thanks Henning ,

This is always a expected option we use in all our project to create a Ent_Adj member to make topside adjs on forms. I was looking forward to explore to see if we can input data through forms on parent entities without the option (All adjustments = Data Entry).
