Phases

APPX Accounts Receivable operates in three distinct phases:

Initial Setup Live Operations Recovery Processing

Initial Setup

During Initial Setup, master files and system-maintained files can be set up and transaction history can be entered. Information entered during the Initial setup phase provides the basis for Live Operations.

Live Operations

Live Operations is used to perform daily transaction processing, file maintenance, report generation and monthly processing functions.

In Live Operations, invoices, cash receipts, and adjustments can be entered. Service charges and refunds can be generated, and invoices, deposit slips, dunning letters, and statements can be printed. Recurring billings can also be generated. After printing journals for the necessary audit trail, transactions can be posted. Many different types of reports can be printed, and information can be viewed using a variety of inquiries. File maintenance can be performed on system master files.

Recovery Processing

There is a certain day-to-day risk of losing data due to sudden power surges or outrages and other system problems. Recovery Processing is used to manually restore information to system-maintained files and fields which are normally not accessible during Live Operations.
