Posting to the A/R Distribution Journal

The A/R Distribution Journal records invoice, credit memo, debit memo, finance charge, and payment transactions. Eventually, you need to post this journal to the General Ledger.

Note: After transactions are posted to the journal, you can no longer update them. You can add text to the line entries, but to adjust them you must use the A/R Payments and A/R Payment Distributions forms.

You can view a summary of the distributions on the Journal Account Summary form. Select the AR Dist Journal in the grid to view the account totals.

You view posted transactions to the A/R Distribution journal on the A/R Posted Transaction Detail form. Use the grid pane to select the transaction you want to view. The Type field identifies the type of transaction you are viewing: invoice, credit memo, debit memo, finance charge, or payment.

To view summary information about the displayed transaction, select Summary. The A/R Posted Transaction Summary form is displayed.
