AR Sales Distribution

You use this program to generate a report of General Ledger entries for sales transactions created within the AR Invoice Posting, AR Initial Invoice Capture, AR Finance Charge Calculation, Sales Order Entry, Document Print and AR Post Permanent Entries programs.

This report is generated from the General Ledger journals created by the AR Invoice GL Integration program.

The AR Sales Distribution report serves as an audit trail of Accounts Receivable sales transactions processed.

[Note]

The AR Sales Distribution report cannot be generated if your Accounts Receivable integration method is defined as Not linked to G/L - no distribution report (General Ledger Integration).

If you have posted all your Accounts Receivable ledger journals to the General Ledger, then you can use this report together with the AR Payments Distribution report as an audit trail of entries posted to the General Ledger and possibly to assist in balancing Accounts Receivable to the General Ledger when discrepancies exist.

This report can be run at any time and as often as required.

Report Details

The distribution report reflects details of the sub-module transactions posted to the GL Journal and are grouped by the GL journal number.

The word ' * Multiple * is printed in place of the GL code where there is more than one warehouse per invoice or if Accounts Receivable is not linked to the General Ledger (General Ledger Integration).

The register number is not printed for the warehouse control when Accounts Receivable is linked to the General Ledger in Summary (General Ledger Integration). Similarly, if Accounts Receivable was linked to the General Ledger in Summary when the GL journal was created and the integration was changed to Detail, the word * Multiple * is still printed on the report for those journals.
