Releasing a Batch

After entering all the payments, you must use one of the following forms to release the batch:

  • Release a single batch online using Cash Batch (AR20.1). Release a single batch online using Cash MICR Assignment (AR21.1), Cash Customer, Transaction Assignment (AR21.1), Cash Non-AR (AR21.3), or Cash Remittance (AR21.4).

  • Release one or more batches using Cash Batch Release (AR24.1).

  • Release multiple batches using Cash Batch Release Report (AR124).

When you release a batch, it updates the customer balances, and makes the payments available for posting to the general ledger. You can not change the payments after releasing them. If you selected Yes in the Batch Control field on Company (AR01.1), control totals must match the entry totals before you can release a batch. Released payments, which can be unapplied, partially applied, or fully applied, are included in customer agings and other reporting and inquiries associated with payments.
