Purpose: This chapter describes the Work with A/P Checks screen, which you may use to adjust or review A/P check information before you pay or delete the checks.
Using this function: Use this function after you complete the Generate A/P Checks Screen, which adds the A/P check records automatically to the A/P Checks file without printing the checks. This gives you the opportunity to review the checks that are eligible to be paid, to adjust or delete checks, as desired, to rerun the Accounts Payable Due List to reflect any changes, or to print the appropriate checks.

Field |
Description |
Sts (Status) |
The status of the A/P check. Valid values are: P = (default): Pay the A/P check N = Pay, but do not print, the check D = Delete the check from the A/P Checks file P status The system assigns a P status to all records in the A/P Checks file when the checks are added to the file through the Generate A/P Checks Screen or through a direct disbursement. The actual checks will be printed for these check records when you press F8. See Paying Checks. N status The system assigns an N status to a check record when you enter 8 next to the record. The check is paid by the system, but no check is created. This option is used for vendors who are paid via wire transfers. See Paying Checks. |
|
D status The system assigns a D status to a check record when you enter 7 next to the record. The check is deleted from the A/P Check file and will be removed from the Work with A/P Checks screen. The check may be added back to the A/P Checks file the next time you run the Generate A/P Checks program if the check meets the specified criteria. See Deleting and Holding Checks. Checks also have this status if you enter 9 next to a check. The check will be removed from the A/P Checks file and will not be eligible to be issued until it is released from hold. The invoice will be listed on the Accounts Payable Held Invoices Report and must be released from hold by a user with proper authority (based on the A/P Vendor Hold Status (A37) field in the Secured Features file). Alphanumeric, 1 position; display-only, updated by the system. |
Invoice # |
The number of the vendor's invoice for the merchandise or service purchased. Alphanumeric, 11 positions; display-only. |
Vendor # |
A code that identifies the person or business from whom you made a purchase. Numeric, 7 positions; display-only. |
Amount |
The dollar amount of the A/P Check. This value represents the total merchandise and other amounts specified through Entering A/P Invoices. Numeric, 9 positions with a 2-place decimal; display-only, calculated by the system. |
The dollar amount of the discount that will be applied to each detail line on the A/P invoice, as defined through Entering A/P Invoices. Numeric, 9 positions with a 2-place decimal; display-only, calculated by the system. |
|
The payment amount of the check, which is calculated by subtracting the discount from the invoice amount. This is the amount that you are paying your vendor for the merchandise or service purchased. You may override the payment amount by typing over the value in this field. Numeric, 9 positions with a 2-place decimal; required. |
|
Vendor description (Unlabeled field under the Invoice # field) |
The name associated with the vendor number. Alphanumeric, 30 positions; display-only. |
The number of the off-line check used to pay off this invoice. This is a check that is not produced by the system. Typically, you would specify a check number if you used option 8 to pay the invoice, but to issue no check. Alternatively, you may override the system-assigned check number when using option 6 to pay the invoice. When you assign the same check number for multiple invoices for a vendor, the system will combine the invoices onto a single check, regardless of the invoice date. The system will combine invoices onto a single check only up to the value in the Max # of Invoices on a Check (C53) field in the System Control file. In any case, the system will not include more than 10 invoices on a check. The system does not allow you to assign the same check number to multiple vendors. Numeric, 7 positions; required if you are paying an invoice but not issuing a check. |
|
The date on which you wrote the manual check. Complete this field only if you specified an off-line check number in the Ck# field. The system does not print this date on the Disbursements Journal; instead, the system uses the date on which you pressed F8 to print the checks as the disbursement date. Numeric, 6 positions; MMDDYY format, required if you are paying an invoice but not issuing a check. |
Screen Option |
Procedure |
Select an A/P check for payment and print the associated check when you select the Print Checks function |
Enter 6 next to the check. See Paying Checks. |
Delete an A/P check from the A/P Checks file |
Enter 7 next to the check. See Deleting and Holding Checks. |
Select an A/P check for payment |
Enter 8 next to the check. See Paying Checks. |
Remove an A/P check from the A/P Checks file and place it on hold so it cannot be issued |
Enter 9 next to the check. See Deleting and Holding Checks. |
Add an existing A/P invoice to the A/P Checks file or pay off an invoice that has not been posted to the Accounts Payable system |
Press F6 to advance to the Create A/P Check Screen. |
Review, adjust or create a payment schedule for the vendor to disburse payments over a 4-week period |
Press F7 to advance to the Work with Vendor Payment Schedule Screen. |
Print checks and generate the Disbursements Journal for each check being paid (and optionally printed) |
Press F8 to advance to the Enter Bank/Division window. See Paying Checks. |
Purpose: Use the pay and print checks options on the Work with A/P Checks Screen to select which checks will be paid and printed.
Step-by-step instructions:
1. Override the amount of the check in the Pay field, if desired.
2. Optionally, enter 6 next to each check you previously designated for nonpayment. The system changes the status of the A/P check from D (don't pay) to P (pay).
3. Press F8 to print all eligible checks.
4. On the Enter Bank/Division pop-up window, enter the codes for the division and bank against which the A/P disbursements should post. If you use A/P-PO matching, the system uses the Division, if any, assigned to the warehouse where you received the matched purchase order; otherwise, it uses the division you enter here to post to the General Ledger Interface file.
5. If the Starting Check Number pop-up window appears, enter the check number in the Chk# field. This pop-up window appears only if you use preprinted checks. You return to the previous menu.
Purpose: Use the pay/no check option on the Work with A/P Checks Screen to identify an A/P check as “paid” without producing the actual check for the vendor.
Selecting this option: Select this option when the vendor is paid via wire transfers and does not require a check for payment.
Step-by-step instructions: To flag a check as “paid” without printing checks:
1. Enter 8 next to each check you want to identify as paid.
2. Optionally, override the amount of the check in the Pay field.
3. Enter the off-line check number (manual check number) in the Chk# field.
4. Enter the date on which you issued the check in the Date field.
5. Press Enter to accept your entries. The system changes the status of the check from P (paid) or D (don't pay) to N (pay/no check).
Types of updates the system performs when you pay an A/P check:
• submits the CHKPRT program, which generates:
• the Disbursements Journal (ACR0173$), which identifies the amount paid to each vendor. This report list the checks paid and the checks paid and printed.
• the A/P Invoice Notes (APR0010$), which includes all notes flagged for printing for each invoice being paid on this check. The notes are listed in the same sequence as the checks.
• assigns a check number of 0 (zero) on the Disbursements Journal to checks disbursed for vendors with an N in the Print checks field in the Vendor file; typically, these vendors are paid via a wire transfer or a direct deposit
If you pressed F8, the system submits the APCHECKS program (ACR0143$), which generates the actual checks.
Additionally, the system:
• removes the check from the Work with A/P Checks Screen
• displays the check on the wWork with A/P Check Reconciliation (WREC) screen
• changes the status of the check to P (paid) in the A/P Checks file
• leaves the check “open” in the Accounts Payable system if you made a partial payment
• reduces the value in the Open A/P field in the Vendor record by the amount paid on the invoice
• reduces the appropriate A/P aging bucket in the Vendor record by the amount paid on the invoice
About paid invoices: When you press F8 to print the checks, the system consolidates all the checks into a single spool file.
The system deletes all invoices for which checks have been printed from the Work with A/P Checks Screen.
The system identifies the invoice as paid (status = P) even if you partially pay the invoice.
When A/P invoice notes are printed: Press F8 to print the A/P checks only if the notes are flagged for printing (Print = Y on the Work with A/P Invoice Notes Screen).
You may attach these notes to the check you are sending to the vendor if you are not paying the full amount on the invoice if, for example, you were short-shipped or the items were damaged.
Sample notes: The notes are printed in the same sequence as the checks.

Note: Notes flagged to print for an invoice will print each time you generate checks for the vendor/invoice. You must reset the Print field to N on the Work with A/P Invoice Notes Screen before generating the checks if the notes should not print again.
Contents:
• Vendor number: The code for the vendor from whom you purchased the items you are now paying for.
• Vendor address: The vendor's name and company address, as defined in the Vendor file. This address is not the Remit To address that is printed on the checks.
• Check number: The number on the check used to pay the vendor. User-assigned or preprinted. The notes page-break by check number.
• Invoice number: The number for the vendor's invoice you are paying off. All invoices being paid on the check are listed on the A/P notes document, even if notes were not entered for some of the invoices.
• Notes: The notes entered for this invoice.
Completing this screen: Enter 7 next to each check you want to delete from the A/P Checks file. The system changes the status of the A/P check from P (pay) or N (pay/no check) to D (don't pay). The system removes the checks you will not be paying automatically from the A/P Checks file. These checks no longer display on the Work with A/P Checks Screen.
These checks may be added back to the A/P Checks file when you use the Generate A/P Checks Screen if the checks meet the specified criteria for check generation.
Instructions: To delete A/P checks from the A/P Checks file and hold them so they cannot be issued:
1. Enter 9 next to each check you want to delete from the A/P Checks file and hold and press Enter. The system changes the status of the A/P check from P (pay) or N (pay/no check) to D (don't pay).
2. The system removes the checks you will not be paying automatically from the A/P Checks file. These checks no longer display on the Work with A/P Checks Screen.
These checks will be held, will not be picked up during the next Check Generation, and will be listed on the Accounts Payable Held Invoices Report that prints automatically during A/P Check Generation. An authorized user must remove the checks from hold for the checks to be issued (the A/P Vendor Hold Status (A37) field in the Secured Features file controls access).
Purpose: Use this screen to:
• add an existing A/P invoice directly to the A/P Checks file if it:
• was not picked up during A/P Check Generation, or
• is on hold and you want to override the hold status and issue the check to the vendor
• enter a direct disbursement for a vendor invoice that has not been posted to the Accounts Payable system
Note: You may also create an A/P Check by entering CMCK in the Fast path field on a menu.

Description |
This value indicates whether the A/P Check you are adding to the A/P Checks file is a direct disbursement not yet posted to the Accounts Payable system. Valid values are: Y = The A/P check is a direct disbursement; the system will not attempt to match the A/P check against a vendor/invoice posted to the system N = The A/P check is not a direct disbursement. If you enter N in this field, you must enter a valid vendor number and invoice number in the Vendor # and Invoice # fields and press Enter. This enables you to add a vendor invoice to the A/P Checks file without first selecting the Generate A/P Checks Screen. The system fills in the bottom half of the screen with the appropriate information from this invoice because the invoice was already posted to the system. Alphanumeric, 1 position; required. |

Numeric, 5 positions with a 2-place decimal. |
|
The number of days used to calculate the due date for the invoice. This field defaults from the Terms code, but may be overridden. When the terms type is “days,” the value in this field is added to the invoice date to determine the gross due date. When the terms type is EOM (end-of-month), the value in this field is added to the end of the month to determine the gross due date. Numeric, 3 positions; required if entering a direct disbursement or defaults if adding a posted invoice to the A/P Checks file. |

Creating a Check for an Existing Invoice
Step-by-step instructions: Use this option if you want to cut a check for an existing invoice without first selecting Work with A/P Checks (WCHK).
1. Enter N in the Direct disbursement field; this indicates that you want to add an invoice to the A/P Checks file without using Generate A/P Checks Screen.
2. Enter the vendor number in the Vendor # field.
3. Enter the number of the vendor's invoice in the Invoice # field.
4. If authorized to do so, enter Y in the Override vendor hold status? field to issue the check. The system validates your entries and displays the appropriate invoice information in the fields located in the bottom half of this screen.
5. Optionally, adjust any values on this screen and press Enter to update the record.
6. Press F9 to generate the A/P check record or press F11 to reject the A/P check record; the system returns you to the Work with A/P Checks Screen.
Entering a Direct Disbursement
Step-by-step instructions to enter a direct disbursement to pay off a vendor invoice that has not been posted to the Accounts Payable system:
1. Enter Y in the Direct disbursement field to indicate that you want to pay an invoice that you have not posted to the system.
2. Enter the vendor number in the Vendor # field.
3. Enter the invoice number in the Invoice # field.
4. If authorized to do so, enter Y in the Override vendor hold status? field to issue the check.

7. Enter the date of the vendor's invoice in the Invoice date field.
8. Enter the code for the vendor's payment terms in the Terms field. The system will highlight the remaining required fields; however, the system will default values to the Discount %, Gross due days, and Net due days fields based on the Terms code. Verify or adjust these values, if necessary.
9. Enter the General Ledger account number in the G/L expense # field against which you will post this transaction.
10. In the Cost field, enter the dollar value at which you purchased the item.
11. Enter the number of units for which you are remitting payment; otherwise, accept the default of 1 unit.
12. Enter N in the Apply discount field if you are creating a check for miscellaneous charges (such as sales tax or freight) or accept the default to apply any applicable discount to each detail line on the invoice.
13. Press Enter to validate your entries and make any necessary corrections.
14. Press F9 to add a check to the A/P Checks file based on your entries to this screen or press F11 to cancel this action. The system clears the screen if you pressed F9. You may create another A/P check or press F11 to return to the Work with A/P Checks Screen.
Processing the check records: The system will check the Max # of Invoices on a Check (C53) field in the System Control file to determine the maximum number of invoices that can be included on a single check. If the number of eligible invoices for which you are generating checks is greater than this value, the system will generate additional checks. In any case, the system will not include more than 10 invoices on a check.
If you have overpaid on an invoice, so that there is a negative invoice on the system (representing a credit), the system will:
• use the invoice date as the due date so that the credit can be applied immediately.
• apply the credit (negative invoice) against an invoice or invoices that are due, automatically subtracting the credit from the invoice.
The system will not print a negative or .00 value check.
Updates: These updates occur when you create a check for an existing invoice or you perform a direct disbursement towards an A/P invoice that has not been posted to the Accounts Payable system:
• the check displays on the Work with A/P Checks Screen in a P (pay) status
• the direct disbursement check is added to the A/P Check Reconciliation file
• an A/P invoice is created and paid for a direct disbursement
• the Open A/P field and appropriate aging bucket(s) in the Vendor record are reduced by the amount of the check
Working with the new check: You may select the Work with A/P Checks function and use one of these options to work with the check:
• enter 7 next to the check to delete the check from the A/P Checks file if you do not want to pay the check at this time
• enter 8 next to the check to pay the check without printing the check if the vendor receives payment via a wire transfer or a direct deposit.
• enter over the amount in the Pay field to adjust the amount that the vendor will be paid
• press F21 to rerun the Accounts Payable Due List to reflect the addition of this check to the A/P Checks file
• press F8 to print all eligible checks and run the Accounts Payable Due List, the Disbursements Journal Summary, and the Accounts Payable Held Invoices Report.
