You cannot access this column if the activity: C/B Bank reconciliation is denied (Operator Maintenance - Security tab) or the eSignatures transaction: C/B Recocnile/unreconcile is set to Denied (Electronic Signatures) against your operator code.

You can click on this field to view the transaction details as follows:

If the option Fixed exchange rate is selected against the foreign currency (Currencies), then you are not prompted for the bank equivalent.

This indicates the exchange rate when the transaction was processed. If the default exchange rate was changed in the Interbank Transfers pane when the transaction was processed, then the changed exchange rate is displayed here.

	The exchange rate is displayed as zero when you used the AP Payment Cycle Maintenance program to process multiple payments for foreign invoices with one check. This is because each invoice could have a different exchange rate. Although the rate is displayed as zero, the Cash book recalculates the local value correctly to ensure that the Bank equivalent is correct.

If the transactions arises from Accounts Payable or from Accounts Receivable, then this column contains a hyperlink of A/P details or A/R details respectively.

If you select the hyperlink: A/R details, then the Cash Book Zoom on AR Transactions program is displayed.

This amount can be zero when processing a Withdrawal, but not when processing a Deposit.

A warning message is displayed when you enter a zero amount when processing either a Manual check or an On-line check, but you can select to continue.

Indicate the currency in which the transaction must be posted.

Local currency banks can process transactions in both local and foreign currencies. The foreign currency transactions are converted into local currency before they are posted to the General Ledger.

When you select a currency, the values in the Value in local currency and Undistributed value fields are updated.

If you select Local currency, then the Exchange rate field is disabled.

If you select a foreign currency with a fixed exchange rate (Currencies), then the Exchange rate field is disabled.

This option is only enabled if the option Foreign cash book required is selected (Cash Book Setup - General tab) and you are processing a transaction for a local currency bank.

Foreign transactions can only be processed in a local bank if the setup option, Foreign cash book required is selected (Cash Book Setup - General tab).

Foreign currency banks can process transactions only in the currency of the bank. These transactions are converted into local currency before they are posted to the General Ledger.

The exchange rate defaults to the Selling exchange rate defined against the currency (Currencies) when processing Deposits and to the Buying exchange rate when processing Withdrawals.

This field is only enabled for an EFT Transaction (Electronic Funds Transfer).

	You should not use the Inclusive tax basis when processing a transaction for tax only (i.e. the transaction amount equals the Tax amount) as the breakdown of tax on the Tax Return reflects incorrectly; it incorrectly assumes that a portion of the invoice amount reflects Merchandise.

The Tax Calculation screen is displayed when you select the G/L Distribution function or when you change a transaction if the following setup options are defined:

This indicates the amount of tax for the transaction, in local currency.

A warning is displayed if the amount entered exceeds 50% of the transaction amount.

The new amount replaces the current value of the transaction.

	This field is only enabled when you are changing transactions which originated in the Cash Book module. You cannot change the amount for a transaction which originated in another module (e.g. Accounts Payable or Accounts Receivable). The amount for such transactions must be changed in the source module. This control was introduced to reduce data integrity problems in the Cash Book.

If the transaction relates to an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), then you cannot change the amount if the transaction has already been extracted using the EFT Payments Extract program or if the transaction is in a status of paid.

If the amount for a released EFT transaction is changed, then the transaction status is set to Captured. The transaction must be re-released and extracted before it can be paid.

A warning message is displayed when you enter a zero amount when processing either a Manual check or an On-line check, but you can select to continue.

This indicates the EFT Cash Book beneficiary for this transaction.

This field cannot be changed if the EFT transaction originated from the Accounts Payable module.

Select this to post payments for non stocked items directly to a Work in Progress job using the WIP Link for AP and Cash Book to WIP program.

This works on the same principle as a normal withdrawal, except that you post the transaction to a job from within the G/L Distribution pane.

Posting to a job can only be performed in the current company. The Cash Book and Work in Progress Modules must be in the same period and both must be open.

This option is only available when you process a Withdrawal and the Work in Progress module is installed.

	Once you have used the WIP Link for AP and Cash Book to WIP program to post a payment to Work in Progress, when you return to the Cash Book Deposits & Withdrawals program, the Delete, Post to Job and Apply Undistributed functions are disabled for the line.

Enable this to process a Tax only transaction, which means that the entire Amount entered must be allocated as a tax value.

For a Deposit transaction, the GL code defined against Tax for deposits for Cash Book (General Ledger Integration) is used to populate the G/L code column.

For a Withdrawal transaction the GL code defined against Tax for withdrawals for Cash Book (General Ledger Integration) is used to populate the G/L code column.

The value entered in the Amount column is allocated as the tax value and the code in the Tax code column is ignored.

If the Tax basis is Exclusive, then the Apply Undistributed option is disabled. If you are using exclusive tax, then the value you enter in the Amount column does not include tax. The entire amount is the tax value so the undistributed value must not be affected.

The Company column is disabled as tax values are always posted to the GL codes of the company you are currently logged in to.

Tax only does not apply when the Tax distribution method is set to Not required (Cash Book Setup) and the option Global tax file required is disabled (General Ledger Setup).

This column is hidden by default and must be dragged onto the listview using the Field Chooser option.

Refer to Restrictions and limits in the Notes and warnings section of the Cash Book Tax Report program for the effect on the Cash Book Tax Report and GL Global Tax Report when processing Tax only transactions.

You can change the company to process an inter-company transaction. The new company entered is used for the duration of the current G/L distribution entry.

You can only change the Company if:

The companies do not have to share the General Ledger.

This column is disabled for Tax only transactions as these can only be posted to the current company.

This indicates the General Ledger account code to which you want to distribute the transaction amount. This column is disabled when processing a Tax only transaction. The GL codes defined for the Cash Book in GL Integration are used.

You can enter separate amounts to be posted against different ledger codes. When you change the amount, the Undistributed value field changes accordingly. You can select the Apply Undistributed option to assign the undistributed value to the ledger code entered.

This indicates the tax code that the system must use to determine the applicable tax amount to be distributed.

The Descriptive tax code must be used if defined (Descriptive Tax Codes).

You can only enter a Tax code manually for each distribution entry, if you have selected one or both of the following setup options:

When processing a Deposit transaction, the tax code defined for Deposits (Cash Book Setup -Tax tab) is displayed by default.

When processing a Withdrawal transaction, the tax code defined for Withdrawals (Cash Book Setup -Tax tab) is displayed by default if the Cash Book is not integrated to the General Ledger, or if the Cash Book is integrated to the General Ledger but a tax code is not defined against the ledger code used in the distribution.

For a Tax only transaction, the tax value is whatever value its entered in the Amount column. The tax value is not a calculated value based on the Tax code.

If the Cash Book is integrated to the General Ledger and a tax code is defined against the ledger code used in the distribution, then this is presented as the default tax code.

The ledger code for the tax value is taken from the ledger codes defined against the Tax for deposits and Tax for withdrawals fields on the Cash Book tab of the GL Integration program and cannot be changed.

If you are posting to a job and you entered a tax code using the WIP Link for AP and Cash Book to WIP program, then this field is disabled.

Enter text against the General Ledger distribution entry processed.

The notation is printed on the Cash Book Journal, the Cash Book Distribution Report and the Cash Book Print report.

This field is enabled only if the setup option Ask notation per detailed distribution entry is selected (Cash Book Setup - General tab).

The message is either a warning or an error depending on the setup option: Calculated and entered tax amounts not equal (Cash Book Setup). If the option to display a warning is enabled, then you can ignore the warning and complete the transaction. If the option to display an error is enabled, then you cannot complete the transaction.
