P-3080 The General Ledger AP Account and the Accounts Payable Aging Schedule do not have the same values.
PRODUCT: CHARTS
TYPE: Software
MODULE: AP
PROGRAM: DISBNEW - The New Accounts Payable Disbursement program.
AUTHOR: HZ
DATE: December 2, 1994
DOC ID: f:\WPDOC\SWP#98
SYMPTOM:
I use the automatic posting program to post purchases and
disbursements from Accounts Payable to General Ledger. I
printed my General Ledger for A/C 2110 Accounts Payable.
I then ran an Accounts Payable Aging Schedule. I expected my
General Ledger account 2110 to have the same ending balance
as my Accounts Payable Aging Schedule. Instead, each had a
different balance. When I examined further I found that in
each case the Purchase amount in each place was the same but
the Disbursement amount was different.
ISSUE/PROBLEM:
The disbursement figures in the Accounts Payable Aging schedule
are incorrect. Program DISBNEW had a bug that was corrected on
12/2/94. The bug caused Disbursement records to be marked
with an "E" indicating that they are Expense items even though
the client entered their Accounts Payable account number,
which in our case is 2110. This error occured only on those
records where the client specified "No Key-off".
SOLUTION:
To get a listing of the bad records run program APTEST by entering
SY,9,7. Use the Accounts Payable Change program in System to
bring up each record and blank out the "E".
Rerun the Accounts Payable Aging Schedule. The disbursement
amounts should now be the same in both places.
