AP Invoice Journal

You use this program to generate a report of journals created from transactions posted using the AP Invoice Posting, AP Invoice Contra, AP Permanent Entries Posting and AP Exchange Rate Revaluation programs.

These journals are created by the AP Invoice GL Integration program and the report serves as an audit trail of Accounts Payable expense transactions processed.

The report can be run at any time and as often as required.

Report Options

Field Description
Reprint
Option Description
Printed and unprinted journals All journals/entries (whether previously printed or not) are included on the report according to the report options indicated. The Reprint column on the report indicates whether the journal/entry was previously printed.
Printed journals Only journals that have been printed before are included on the report
Unprinted journals Only journals that have not been printed before are included on the report.
Period selection

Indicate the financial period and year for which to print the journal information.

Period Indicate the financial period (within the year selected) for which you want to print expense journals.
Year Indicate the financial year for which you want to print expense journals.
Suppress zero tax values When enabled, zero tax value lines are not printed on the report when the supplier is exempt from tax and the tax lines are for zero tax.

For example:

You have an invoice (A) with tax and an invoice (B) without tax (i.e. zero tax).

Both invoices are printed on the report, but when this option is enabled, then

  • two lines are printed on the report for Invoice A (i.e. the merchandise line and the tax line).

  • one line (the merchandise line) is printed for Invoice B (i.e. the tax line is zero so it its not printed).

When this option is not enabled, two lines are printed for each invoice (i.e. the zero tax line for Invoice B will be printed).

Journal number selection Indicate the transaction journal number(s) you want to print.
Branch selection Indicate the Accounts Payable branches for which you want to print the journals.

Output Options

These options enable you to apply a theme to the report and to define multiple output destinations for the report once it has been compiled (SRS Output Options).

Report Details

  • Currency exchange rate variance values are listed in the Revaluations column on the Summary page of the journal.

Notes and warnings

Reprinting

  • You can only reprint invoice journals for as long as you are retaining Expense journals (Accounts Payable Setup).

  • The Period selection is ignored when reprinting journals. All journals are reprinted irrespective of the periods selected.
