Proof Mode

When you run the Create Automatic Debit Batch program in proof mode, the system:

  • Validates the selection of invoices that are to be automatically debited to customers.

  • Generates a record in the F03B571 table to identify the automatic debit batch.

    This record appears on the Work with Auto Debit Batches form.

  • Generates records in the F03B575 table that include all of the invoices that match the data selection criteria.

  • Creates two reports:

    • Create Automatic Debit Batch (R03B571) creates an exception report of any errors that occur in the selection of invoices for the automatic debit batch.

      If the system does not detect an error, it prints the message Records Processed - No Exceptions.

    • R03B575 (Process Automatic Debits) creates the invoices that constitute the automatic debit batch.

  • Updates the Status field in the F03B571 table to 1 (Proof Mode).

You can create an unlimited number of automatic debit batches. The system stores the automatic debit information in the appropriate tables until you delete or purge them.
