Sage ERP Accpac Inventory Control 6.0

Change Posting and Day End Processing Options

Overview

Inventory Control lets you choose:

  • When the program costs inventory (either when posting transactions or during day-end processing).

  • When it creates sub-ledger and audit information.

  • When it creates General Ledger transaction batches, and whether it should also post them automatically.

You can also lets you decide whether to post transactions immediately entering them or save them after entry and post them later. See Processing Transactions for the difference between immediate and batch posting.

Before you start

  • Print the G/L Integration report from the Setup Reports folder so you have a record of your G/L Integration settings before you start.

  • If you are changing from updating costs during day end processing to updating costs during posting, you must first run day end to cost all outstanding posted transactions.

  • If you are changing from using the Create G/L Batch form to creating general ledger transactions during day-end processing, be sure to run Create G/L Batch to process any outstanding transactions first, to avoid accidentally omitting transactions from your general ledger batches.

  • See Results of Day-End Processing to understand how Day End Processing works.

Note: You cannot change Posting or Day End Processing options if any other Inventory Control forms are open, or other users are working with the Inventory Control database.
