Option 8Processed Invoices

This function allows changes and additions to be made to Vendor Invoice records which cannot be accessed during Live Operations.

Normally, Processed Invoices records are created during the “Process Initial Setup” function for all paid and unpaid invoices entered through “Opening Transactions”. Therefore, this function should be used only to add Processed Invoice records that are fully paid and not included in the Opening Transactions, if this historical information is required.

The screen shown below presents information about Processed Invoices.

This file holds Processed Invoice records, for each vendor, for the number of months indicated on the Parameters file. Based on the later of invoice date and date paid, obsolete records are deleted when appropriate at end-of-month.

Then, position the cursor by that record and press ENTER; the record will be displayed for editing.

Data items for the preceding screen are described below:
