Approving and Posting Manual Payments

If your business requires management approval before posting, after you enter manual payments, you review and approve them. After approving the payments, post them to the general ledger using the General Ledger Post program (R09801).

When you post manual payments, the system creates payment disbursement entries and offset entries in the F0911 table for the payable account. The system creates payment records with a document type of PN. The system typically creates journal entries that debit the AP trade account that was originally credited when the voucher was entered.

Note: When manual payments without a voucher match are posted, the system does not generate a gain-loss record. The system interprets this type of transaction as a voucher and check combination.
