Narrative:
I was working sector 38 r-side/D-side combined. Traffic was moderately busy and we had overflights available through the edw complex which lends to some complexity. I was flashing several aircraft at joshua approach to initiate our flash-through procedure. I used 'J' to initiate the handoffs. The automation forwarded the handoffs to J1G instead of J1B. I did not notice in my scan and one of the aircraft penetrated their boundary without a handoff completed. I called for the late point out and redirected the handoff. The controller there took the handoff and flashed it on the sec 27. This is a repeated problem with joshua approach's automation. I would recommend their automation be forwarded correctly so the appropriate sector sees the handoff flashing at them.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: ZLA Controller reported of an automation problem between ZLA and Joshua Approach. Controller pointed out multiple aircraft using the flash-through procedure. One aircraft did not flash through to the correct sector and the Controller ended up having multiple airspace deviations.
