Question

Answer

How do I know whether to use the Enter A/P Workfile Adjustment program (P04510FP) or the Enter Payment Adjustments program (P04510)?

The program to use depends on the 1099 ledger method you use.

For the A/P Ledger method, you can use only the Enter A/P Workfile Adjustment program to correct existing records. This program does not provide an audit trail.

For the G/L method, you can use either the Enter A/P Workfile Adjustment program or the Enter Payment Adjustments program to correct existing records.

  • If you use the Enter Payment Adjustments program after you build the G/L Worktable (F045141), you must rerun the Build G/L Workfile program (R04514).

  • The Enter Payment Adjustments program does not affect the integrity of the Accounts Payable Ledger (F0411) or Account Ledger (F0911) table. This program provides an audit trail.

For the combined A/P ledger and G/L methods, you can use either the Enter A/P Workfile Adjustment program or the Enter Payment Adjustments program to correct existing records.

To verify the effect of the entries on the records that are merged from the F045141 and F045143 tables, print the 1099 A/P - G/L Combined Register (R04512FB).

I entered adjustments using the Enter Payment Adjustments program. Now I want to add another adjustment using the Enter A/P Workfile Adjustment program, but I am unable to inquire on the previous adjustments. Why?

You enter information in the F0911 table when you use the Enter Payment Adjustments program, but you inquire on information in the F045143 table when you use the Enter A/P Workfile Adjustment program. These tables are not interrelated. However, you can review combined information on the 1099 A/P - G/L Combined Register.
