57 Set Up Commitment Relief

This chapter contains the topic:

57.1 Setting Up Commitment Relief

When use the Commitment Relief field to specify whether the system automatically relieves open commitments when you post accounts payable vouchers to the general ledger. These vouchers relate to non-inventory purchase orders and contract progress payments.

JD Edwards World recommends that you set the Commitment Relief field to Y (yes) to automatically relieve commitments when you post progress payment vouchers. If you set this field to N (no), you should run the Post Committed Costs to Jobs program on a weekly or monthly basis to relieve commitments.
