Printing the Vendor Period Statistics Report

This report lists the total amount of amount of invoices, payments, discounts taken, discounts lost, credit and debit notes, and adjustments you have recorded for a given vendor during the period covered by the report, as well as the total number of invoices paid during that period.

Note: The reports list statistics for the type of year and period specified on the A/P Options screen.

When to Print

Print the report when you need a summary of vendor statistics (for example, at the end of each period).

You can print the period statistics reports for vendors or for vendor groups.

To print the Vendor Period Statistics report:

  1. Open Accounts Payable > A/P Vendor Reports >  Vendors.
  2. Select Vendor Period Statistics as the report type.
  3. Select the currency (if you use multicurrency accounting).
  4. Specify whether to include the number of documents that make up the total amount for each type of transaction listed on the report.
  5. Specify the years and periods for which to include transactions, and up to four selection and sorting criteria

  6. Click Print.

    • If you are printing to a physical printer, the Print window appears. Confirm your printer selection and the number of copies to print, and then click OK. Otherwise, click Cancel or Setup.
    • If you are printing to the screen (preview), the report appears in a new window. You can print the report or export it to a file.

      Note: For Web-based clients, the preview screen appears first when you click the Print button.

    • If you are printing to a file, the Export window appears. Specify the file format (for example, PDF, DOC, or XLS). Also, specify a destination for the file:

      • Application. View the report in an application that can open files of the specified format (for example, if you specify PDF as the file format, the report opens in Adobe Acrobat). You can then save the file.
      • Disk file. Save the report to a location you specify.
      • Microsoft Mail. Send the report as an e-mail attachment.

      You can enter the name of a non-existent file or directory to be created by the system when you print. When you print to a file, the report is assigned a unique name, for example, CS1000.TXT.

    • If you are printing to e-mail, an e-mail message appears with the report attached.
