Understanding Open Liability and Reconciliation Reporting

PeopleSoft Payables provides reports to view open liabilities and compare them to the open liabilities in PeopleSoft General Ledger. These reports enable you to find unbalanced liabilities easily and correct them as necessary. PeopleSoft Payables also provides a report that enables you to age suppliers' liabilities.

Creating an open liability or reconciliation report involves specifying both report parameters and run control parameters on a single page. Initiating an Application Engine process from the page accesses the PeopleSoft Process Scheduler, from which you can select options to populate the appropriate report tables and generate reports to your specifications.

The following open liability and reconciliation reports are delivered with PeopleSoft Payables:

Note: Data that appears in open liability and reconciliation reports is accurate as of the time you run the Application Engine process that loads the report tables, based on the requested as-of date and as-of date type parameters that you select. However, if the report tables already have the data that you want, you can run multiple reports by changing the report request parameters and running the reports only.
