Process at a Glance

When processing a cashed bill of exchange, AP181 changes the status of the invoices paid by the bill of exchange to historical. When processing a dishonored bill of exchange, AP181 reinstates the invoices associated with the dishonored bill of exchange. Depending on the reason the bill of exchange was dishonored, you can reschedule, maintain, or cancel the invoices.

You can run AP181 only if you chose the Bill of Exchange Draft Statement option on the Options tab of Pay Group (AP01.1).
