Selecting General Ledger Integration Options for Accounts Receivable
Accounts Receivable creates batches of general ledger transactions either when you post the A/R transactions or on demand. Each general ledger transaction includes all the information needed to accurately update receivables data in your general ledger.
You can change options that control how Accounts Receivable integrates with General Ledger.
