O/E Create Batch Screen
Fields and controls
Post A/R Batch
Select this option to post a batch of invoices in Accounts Receivable from invoices or credit/debit notes posted in Order Entry.
Overview
Use the Create Batch screen to:
- Create a batch of General Ledger transactions from posted shipments (or append transactions to an existing General Ledger batch) and optionally post them automatically. You can use this screen to create General Ledger batches only if you selected On Request Using Create G/L Batch Screen for the Create G/L Transactions option on the Integration tab of the O/E G/L Integration screen.
- Post a batch of invoices in Accounts Receivable from invoices or credit/debit notes posted in Order Entry. You can use this screen to post Accounts Receivable invoices created by Order Entry only if you selected On Request Using Create Batch Screen for the Post A/R Batches option on the Processing tab of the O/E Options screen.
Posting to Locked Fiscal Periods
If a fiscal period is locked for General Ledger but not for Order Entry, you can create batches for General Ledger in the following ways:
- During posting.
- Using the G/L Batch screen (depending on the options you select on the O/E G/L Integration screen).
If you try to post transactions to a locked period in General Ledger, transactions will be added to an error batch. To prevent this from happening, create and post General Ledger batches for outstanding Order Entry transactions before locking the period for General Ledger.
Similarly, you can create transactions for Accounts Receivable from Order Entry transactions, but you cannot post them to a period that is locked for Accounts Receivable.
