24552 A/P PROCESSING
AP2-05 Invoice Maintenance

 

PURPOSE

 

Although this is a maintenance program, it is included with the processing programs because it concerns maintenance that is done to entries made through the Invoice Posting program or A/P Cheque Printing rather than modifying master file information.

 

The Invoice Maintenance program is used to make changes to invoices that have already been posted. No dollar values can be altered here, only information such as invoice number, invoice date, discount date and due date. It is also used to put an invoice on hold, to cancel its hold status or to flag an invoice for immediate pay.

 

To cancel an invoice or to change the invoice amount, please refer to 24554 Invoice Reversals.

 

This program is typically used to change the due date or discount date on an invoice prior to printing cheques in order to include or exclude a particular invoice from a cheque printing or to place/cancel the hold status of an invoice. It is also used when you wish to print cheques for only a single or few invoices by flagging them for immediate pay, and then printing cheques for immediate pay only invoices.

 

Invoice Maintenance is accessed from:

  • Accounts Payable Processing menu

 

PROCEDURE

 

Select Invoice Maintenance from the Accounts Payable Processing menu. You are taken to the Invoice Maintenance display.

You can: (a) flag individual invoices by selecting the associated line number followed by the [F6] key or (b) press [F6] alone to flag all of the invoices that are displayed on the screen.

 


[F4] to exit to menu.

 

When you exit the inquiry by pressing the [F4] key, the program displays the following prompt which allows you to change all flagged invoices to immediate pays:
