Lockbox updating criteria
Each BOD that is received from your bank is stored in a batch file. Each BOD contains one transaction. The batch file is a temporary holding place for payment transactions until the AR and GL records are updated.
This table shows the how the options on the Customer Entry Lockbox Import Report affect the updating process:
Post/Update Imported Transactions | If Yes, Post Only Batches Ready? | If No, Force batches Un-Suspended? | Result |
---|---|---|---|
Yes | Yes | NA | If the check is ready to post, the transaction is updated. |
Yes | No | Yes | All transactions are updated to the General Ledger. |
Yes | No | No | If a transaction is within the write-off limits, it is updated. |
No | NA | NA | The AR or GL records are not updated. The transaction record is stored in a batch file. |
You can use the Customer Entry Lockbox Import Report to balance the bank deposit for each lockbox set of transactions included in the transmission regardless of the value in the Post Only Batches Ready option.
