Understanding System Constants

These constants control the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Receivable system for all companies. Therefore, you set them up for company 00000 only:

• Batch Control Required

  To specify the total number of documents to enter in a batch and the corresponding amount, select this option. By selecting this option, the system displays the Batch Entry form, on which you enter information about the batch. This form enables you to compare what you actually entered against what you specified that you would enter, which helps you minimize entry errors.

• Manager Approval of Input

  If you select this option, the system assigns a pending status to all invoice and receipt batches, which require batch approval before you can post them.

  See Setting Up Batch Approval and Post Security.

• General Ledger Interface

  Select this option if you are using the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Accounting system. Failure to select this option results in one-sided entries that negate any integrity reporting.

• Offset Method

  When you post transactions to the general ledger, you can select whether to create one offsetting entry per batch (B), one offsetting entry per transaction (Y), or one offsetting entry per pay item (S).
