How Does GM500 Relieve Encumbrances?

The Non-Lawson Payroll Tran Import (GM500) automatically relieves Project Accounting and General Ledger commitments generated by Salary Encumbrance Processing (GM110). Encumbrances dated on or earlier than the pay period end date for each employee processed are relieved.

Note: To ensure encumbrances are up-to-date and to remove any encumbrances for employees for whom imported records were not processed, Lawson recommends running Salary Encumbrance Processing (GM110) after completing the Non-Lawson Payroll Tran Import (GM500).
