18.2 Employee/Card Revisions (P01P01)

Processing Option Processing Options Requiring Further Description
EXPIRATION DATE ALERT:  
Enter the number of days to be used as a tolerance amount to alert you to expiring cards. An alert will be displayed next to the Expiration Month/Year if it falls within the tolerance days from the system date, or if the Expiration Month/Year has passed. Enter the number of days prior to the card expiration date that you want the system to use to display the message, Expired!, on the Employee Card Revisions screen (P01P01)
Z-FILE PROCESSING:  
2. Enter the character you will use to indicate you want the field cleared. If a value is entered, fields left blank will not be updated. If no value is entered, the entire record, all fields, will be processed and blank fields will be cleared. If you use the batch import (Z) process to update employee card information, you can use this processing option to specify a special character to indicate that you want to clear a field. The system clears the value from any field that has the character you specify in this processing option on the spreadsheet when you process the changes using Purchase Card Revisions (P01P01Z). For example, suppose you use category code 01 to track the employee's job and the employee moves to another position that no longer requires use of a credit card. If you attempt to clear a value using the Z-file, the system does not distinguish that you are changing the value of the field. You assign a special character to the fields that you want to clear on the F01P01Z spreadsheet and then enter that character in the processing option for Z-File Processing. The system locates all fields with the special character that you specify in the processing option and clears the value in the field.

18.14 Create Vouchers - Merchant Tracking (P01P510)

Processing Option Processing Options Requiring Further Description
PROOF OR FINAL MODE  
1. Enter a '1' to process the batch information in Final mode. If left blank, the batch processing will be performed in Proof mode and no file updates will occur.  
AUTOMATIC POST  
2. Enter a '1' to automatically submit the post after processing/creating voucher transactions. If left blank, the post is not submitted.  
VOUCHER CREATION:  
3. Enter one of the following voucher creation methods:

' ' = Standard Voucher

'1' = Logged Vouchers

'2' = Multicompany Single Supplier

NOTE: Multicompany is only invoked if you are processing pay items at the detail level.

You must coordinate the setting of this processing option with the setting of the processing option for Create Journal Entries (P01P520) that specifies whether to create an offsetting entry by company and business unit; otherwise, the offset accounts will not balance to zero when you post the corresponding vouchers.

Blank - Standard Voucher. The system uses the following hierarchy to locate the CCP AAI to use to retrieve the G/L distribution account to assign to the voucher:

  • CCP + Currency + Employee Company

  • CCP + Currency + Company 00000

  • CCP + Employee Company

  • CCP + Company 00000

The system uses the employee company from the F01P11 record to locate the CCP AAI to use. If you do not specify a business unit on the CCP AAI, the system uses the employee business unit from the F01P11 record and concatenates it to the object/subsidiary to derive the offset account to use.

1 - Logged Voucher. Use this processing option setting when you assign purchase order information to the PCard transaction for encumbrance or inventory processing. The system uses the standard voucher logging AAIs (PP and PQ) for the G/L distribution and updates the Create Journal Entries Date field (CRTJ) with the system date to prevent journal entries from being generated.

2 - Multicompany Single Supplier. This is only invoked if you are processing pay items at the detail level.Set to 2 if you also generate multiple offset entries in the Create Journal Entries program. The system uses the following hierarchy to locate the CCP AAI to use:

  • CCP + Currency + Expense Distribution Company

  • CCP + Currency + Company 00000

  • CCP + Expense Distribution Company

  • CCP + Company 00000

The system derives the expense distribution company based on the business unit of the expense account from the F01P111 record and uses that to locate the CCP AAI to use. If the business unit is blank on the CCP AAI, the system uses the business unit from the expense distribution account and concatenates it to the object/subsidiary account specified in the AAI to derive the offset account.

TRANSACTION PROCESSING  
4. Enter a '1' to create the voucher pay items at the detail level. If left blank, pay items will be created at the Transaction level rather than the detail distribution level. If you receive PCard transactions with receipt details and you process them in detail mode, then the transactions in the F01P11 are the same as those in F01P111. If no further G/L distribution has been made to allocate the entries to more than the original transmitted account, then the detail and the receipt information are the same and the setting of this processing option is moot. The system generates voucher pay items for receipt details.

Similarly, if you do not receive PCard transactions with receipt details, then regardless of your process mode the transactions in the F01P11 are the same as those in F01P111. If no further G/L distribution has been made to allocate the entries to more than the original transmitted account, then the detail and the receipt information are the same and the setting of this processing option is moot. The system generates one voucher pay item that represents the receipt total.

If you receive PCard transactions with receipt details and you process them in summary mode, the system summarizes the receipt details from F01P111 into one receipt total in F01P11. Similarly, if you do not receive PCard transactions with receipt details, but you add detail entries by further allocating the expenses across multiple G/L accounts, then you would have a single F01P11 receipt total with multiple F01P111 detail records. Therefore, setting this processing option affects whether you generate one or more pay items on the voucher.

5. Enter value for G/L Date Assignment:

' ' = Purchase Date

'1' = Summarized Purchase Date to Period End Date

'2' = Statement Date

'3' = Summarized Statement Date to Period End Date

'4' = G/L date Entered below:

G/L Date . . . . . . . . . .

NOTE: If Statement Date is not available the Purchase Date will be used.

CAUTION!!! DREAM Writer Sequence must be set correctly for selected date assignment.

Note: If you use either of the Statement Date options (2 or 3), you must set the Data Sequence as follows:
  • Employee Company

  • Currency Code

  • Statement Date

  • Date of Purchase

  • Unique Key ID

The program provides a unique DREAM Writer version for Statement Date processing (ZJDE0003).

BYPASS TAX DEFAULTS  
6. Enter a '1' to bypass tax processing (no tax processing and no tax area/tax explanation defaults). If left blank, tax processing will be in effect.

  • Employee Company

  • Currency Code

  • Statement Date

  • Date of Purchase

  • Unique Key ID

The program provides a unique DREAM Writer version for Statement Date processing (ZJDE0003).

4. Enter '1' to create multiple balance offset entries in Company/Business Unit detail. If left blank, one offset will be created for the journal entry using the Employee Company and Business Unit. Blank - One offset entry for each journal entry the system generates. The system uses the following hierarchy to locate the CCP AAI to use:
  • CCP + Currency + Employee Company

  • CCP + Currency + Company 00000

  • CCP + Employee Company

  • CCP + Company 00000

The system uses the employee company from the F01P11 record to locate the CCP AAI to use. If you do not specify a business unit on the CCP AAI, the system uses the employee business unit from the F01P11 record and concatenates it to the object/subsidiary to derive the offset account to use.

1 - One offset entry for each company and business unit combination based on the account used for the journal entry expense. The system uses the following hierarchy to locate the CCP AAI to use:

  • CCP + Currency + Expense Distribution Company

  • CCP + Currency + Company 00000

  • CCP + Expense Distribution Company

  • CCP + Company 00000

The system derives the expense distribution company based on the business unit of the expense account from the F01P111 record and uses that to locate the CCP AAI to use. If the business unit is blank on the CCP AAI, the system uses the business unit from the expense distribution account and concatenates it to the object/subsidiary account specified in the AAI to derive the offset account.
