Purge Paid Approval Entries - APOHUTPA
This utility is used when an approval entry exists in the Open Hold database that matches a certain Vendor ID/Invoice number combination (i.e. an approval for payment was made to Vendor 34210 for Invoice number 56473, since then an attempt has been made to process another payment to Vendor 34210 for Invoice number 56473.) Use APOHUTPA filters and run in trial mode to see if approvals have already been given for the entry but the entry no longer exists within the ohb_batch_dtl table (the background table holding AP data until it is distributed). After finding the desired records using trial mode, commit to purging prior approvals by unchecking the Trial Run check box, then run again. APOHUTPA then purges prior Paid Approvals. Alternatively, purge a range of approvals for data that was not deleted during other data removal processes.
