Mass Invoice Release (AP126)

Run Mass Invoice Release (AP126) to release registered invoices for a company that has Yes selected in the Invoice Approval field and No selected in the Batch Release field in AP00.4 (Company).

AP126 lets you release a group of registered invoices in one step, rather than releasing invoices individually in AP26.1 (Invoice Release). The form creates a summary of released invoices and a listing of invoices not released.

Note: AP126 will not release registered invoices that do not have an authority code assigned. Use AP20 (Invoice Entry) or AP26.1 (Invoice Release) to assign authority codes to registered invoices before you release them. Invoices must also be in balance before you can release them, except for a company that has Yes selected in both the Workflow and Release Out of Balance fields in AP00.4 (Company).

Processing Effect

When you release a registered invoice, the invoice distribution information becomes available for posting to the general ledger. Released invoices either become available for payment, become available for approval, or are routed to the ProcessFlow application for approval, depending on the options defined for the company in AP00.4 (Company).

If your Accounts Payable application is set up to check payment status on invoices, after release an Accounts Payable API is run to verify if activity requires payment information.
