Create AR or CR Set from AP Batch - ARSPAP
This function will create an AR or CR Batch File from an AP Batch File. Each entry in the AP Batch File with a relate-to code of "AR" will be transferred to the specified AR Batch File. The system provides the means to change the following fields automatically during the conversion:
• Account Key
• Object Code
• Division Code
• Posting Code
• Miscellaneous Code
The mapping may be done for all entries or only those entries with a certain AP Division. On each transaction processed, the system will search for a Finance Code of APARxxxx; where xxxx is the Division on the AP record. If no entry is found, the system will then search for a Finance Code of APAR. If a Finance Code is found, the resulting AR transaction will contain the Account Key, Object, Division, Posting and Miscellaneous Code specified on the retrieved Finance Code.
Create an AR or CR Set: Select AR or CR accordingly (the default is for an AR set).
Set name for resulting transactions: Enter the name of the new AR or CR set.
Please enter the name of your AP Set: Enter the name of the AP batch file to be converted to either an AR or CR batch.
Term Code for new transactions: Enter the term code that corresponds to the newly created AR batch.
How should the AR Account ID number be determined? Select one of the following:
- DS - Use the last value in description. The system will use the last value entered in the AP descriptions field to derive the account ID for Accounts Receivable.
- HR - Use Hierarchy method. The hierarchy method uses internal program logic to determine that account ID for AR. The program searches in this order: DS, L8, SR, ID. The first valid PE ID will be placed on the AR transaction.
- ID - Use the AP PE ID. The system will use the PE ID from the AP record to derive the account ID for Accounts Receivable. (This is the most common method.)
- L8 - Use the last eight characters of the AP Reference. A common code is used to obtain the AR Description field information. If the common code, ARAP/CONTROL, is set to "ON" and "APDESC" is in the 1st Associated Code then the AP Description will populate the AR Description field. Otherwise, the AP PE Name will populate the AR Description field.
- SR - Use the A/P Second Reference. A common code is used to obtain the AR Description field information. If the common code, ARAP/CONTROL, is set to "ON" and "APDESC" is in the 1st Associated Code then the AP Description will populate the AR Description field. Otherwise, the AP PE Name will populate the AR Description field.
AR Override Set ID: Enter the desired batch ID. If no batch ID is specified, the system will copy the AP batch ID as the AR batch ID.
