In order to remove a payment restriction, you must approve the changes. The person responsible for approving changes should be someone other than the person who entered them.

As part of the review process, you can review the changed data on the form where the change was made. You can also review details about the change, including:

  • The data that existed before the change

  • The data that existed after the change

  • The user ID of the person who made the change

  • The date and time of the change

When you approve a change, the system records:

  • The user ID of the person who approved the change

  • The date and time that the change was approved

This program reads information in the Payee Control table (F0450).
