Parameter Definitions

From the Master Menu, double-click . The Keyop Menu opens. From the Keyop Menu, double-click . The Parameter Editor window opens. Double-click Text Base Parameters. The text-based (L) Parameters screen opens. In the Selection Code field, type F. The (LF) Purchase Order Parameters screen opens. Type 2. The (LF2) P/O Journals Parameters screen opens. In this screen, you can specify the names and locations of your journalized purchase order files. The system refers to this list when it receives invoices via EDI from vendors.

 

To send the invoices to accounts payable, the system must match each invoice with the corresponding purchase order(s). It refers to this list for purchase order locations, first searching the file JOUR-PO for the corresponding purchase order(s). If the system does not find the purchase order(s) in JOUR-PO, it automatically searches the next file on the list, which should be the most recent journalized file (the one from last month, for example). It’s important to remember to enter only the journal names that are necessary. For example, if you only need to match on invoices from the past three months, only enter the journal names from that time period.

 

When adding new journals to the (LF2) screen using the [N] New Journal action code, the P/O journal in the 1) field of the Journal Name column moves to the 2) field, the journal in the 2) field moves to the 3) field, and so on. If you add a thirteenth journal, the bottom journal name (in the 12) field) is removed from the list. The information in this screen only applies if you set the Match On P/O Nbr field in the (CP) Vendor Electronic Invoice Parameters screen to Y or N. If you set the Match On P/O Nbr field to O, the system posts invoices without matching them to the corresponding purchase order.
