A/R Batch Listing Report

Overview

This report lists batches of invoice, receipt, adjustment, or refund transactions.

Tip: To enforce a strict audit trail, turn on the Force Listing of All Batches option on the Processing tab of the A/R Options screen. This option prevents you from posting any batches until you print listings for them.

When to Print

You should print a batch listing after entering, editing, or posting a batch. You then file the report with your other audit trail records.

If you select the Force Listing of All Batches option on the Processing tab of the A/R Options screen, you must print all batch listings before you can post the batches. This enforces a strict audit trail.

Information Printed on This Report

The Batch Listing can include the following information, depending on the options you select at print time:

Batch entry number. This is the number assigned to each transaction in the A/R Invoice Entry screen or A/R Receipt Entry screen. It is a permanent part of the information stored for an entry, and appears on the posting journals and on the unconsolidated G/L Transactions report. Use this number to select an unposted transaction for editing, and to trace the history of a posted transaction.
Note: If you apply a prepayment to an invoice in the A/R Invoice Entry screen, Accounts Receivable assigns the prepayment an entry number in the receipt batch to which you assign it, and the prepayment appears on the receipt batch listing for the receipt batch.
