Datafile Software Extra Features in Purchase Invoice Transaction Lookup Purchase Ledger invoice entry has a transaction lookup option that allows for linking of a transaction to another database and to copy information from / to that database. In practice this is often used to link to the sales order header database where a purchase invoice specifically relates to a customer order. This new option allows for the system to read the
customer account / invoice reference from the lookup database record and
perform a Ledger Enquiry check against this invoice so you can determine if it
has been paid. After confirmation that this is the lookup record required the system then performs the sales account ledger enquiry the customer account / invoice reference recorded on the lookup record. The usual options, depending on configuration, of VIEW
/ ANALYSIS / DOCUMENT / ORDER are available to review the sales invoice. Pressing the <ESC> key or the CLOSE
button will exit back to the invoice entry to allow you to continue to post the
invoice transaction. Installation Application User Facilities The configuration parameters for the transaction
lookup are accessed via the Purchase Ledger Application User Facilities. To update select Installation from the main menu followed by Application Manager and then Application
User Facilities. Select the Purchase Ledger application followed by Purchase Transactions and proceed to
the second page of parameters. As you
<Enter> through the parameter ‘Perform Lookup to External File for
Validating / Updating’ a pop-up screen will display the configuration
parameters if the feature is enabled. The new parameters to access the Sales Account Ledger Enquiry are: Check S/L
Account Info from I/P File: Account – reference the data item on the lookup record that
contains the sales ledger account code. Note For full details on configuring the transaction lookup please refer to the Sales and Purchase PDF Help manual that can be accessed via the Help pull-down menu on the main Datafile toolbar. |
