Perform Accounts Payable from Accounts Receivable Clearing

 

Expand/Collapse item  Overview

You can add, delete, or modify the amount to transfer between Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable, before the Accounts Payable from Accounts Receivable clearing is processed. For each invoice selected, enter the amount to apply.

To change the clearing amount, you can edit AP from AR Clearing Entry before updating the AP from AR Clearing Register; if you do not want to change the amounts, you must clear each vendor linkage separately and update.

The adjusted amounts are cleared for the selected invoices, and a credit memo is created in Accounts Payable for the amount cleared from Accounts Receivable.

On the Vendor Maintenance Invoices and Transactions tabs, the invoice number for the clearing transaction appears as ARM-MMDD-X (where ARM represents an Accounts Receivable merge, MMDD is the month and day of the clearing transaction, and X is the sequence number for the transaction cleared on that day for that vendor). A debit amount, the total dollar amount cleared to Accounts Receivable, appears in the Trans Amount field.
