Post Business Unit: Enter a business unit to post all eligible vouchers within that payables business unit. Post Contract: Enter a business unit and contract ID to post all eligible transactions covered by the contract. Post Group: Specify the business unit and control group ID.

Post Origin: Enter a SetID and origin to post all eligible vouchers from the origin that you specify. Post Voucher: Enter a business unit and voucher to post. Multiple vouchers can be selected. Note: Vouchers that fall within a closed accounting period will not be listed in the Voucher ID field when the Post Voucher option is selected. Furthermore, the Voucher Posting process will not process any vouchers that fall within a closed accounting period. |
Initiate Entry Event Generator |
Select this check box to run the Entry Events Application Engine process (FS_EVENTGEN) for the vouchers being posted. This field appears only if you have enabled entry events (as either required or optional) at the installation options level. |
Prepayment Application Method |
Indicate which supplier the system should use when applying prepaid vouchers to regular vouchers. Values are: Invoicing Supplier: The system performs application based on the invoicing supplier of the prepaid and regular voucher. This is the default value. Remit Supplier: The system performs application based on the remit supplier of the prepaid and regular voucher. |
Autopilot Run Control |
Select this check box to enable this run control ID and settings to use the Autopilot feature. |
Note: The exact procedure for running a process on a server depends on the type of server that you are using and your organization's standards. For example, if you are running PeopleSoft Payables in a DB2 environment, you or your mainframe administrator submits JCL to initiate the program. If you do initiate the posting program from the server, the program retrieves its processing options from the Voucher Posting Run Control record that you already set up in the online pages.
