Expand/Collapse item  Overview

When entering an invoice for the monthly credit card statement, you can combine invoices entered throughout the month for your credit card vendor into one invoice. Combine invoices if you performed a large number of invoice and purchase transfers throughout the period but want to print one invoice (the entire statement amount) on the check stub. Use this procedure to combine all individual invoices for your credit card vendor entered throughout the month's statement into one invoice. For more information, see Credit Card Transfers FAQs.

You can combine invoices by entering the new invoice in Accounts Payable Invoice Data Entry or by creating the invoice on the fly in Manual Check and Payment Entry.
