Hints and Tips No8 – Nov 09

Welcome to the November  edition of our Hints and Tips newsletters for Dynamics GP users.This month I am covering:

  • Edit Cheque Batch
  • Receivables Paid Transaction Removal

 

 

Edit Cheque Batch
Dynamics GP Version 9 introduced a new purchase ledger screen to assist with creating and editing purchase ledger cheque batches.Selecting Transactions>Purchasing>Edit Cheque Batch lets you create a new cheque batch or modify an existing one. You simply mark suppliers you want to pay and then select or deselect invoices with a simple check box.

In addition

  • You can change which columns are displayed to show additional information, using the Columns controls.
  • Change the order the information is displayed in by clicking on the column headings.
  • Drill down on the amount paid to check the payment details.
  • Print the batch edit list using the printer control at top right.

 

Receivables Paid Transaction Removal
If you have a large number of receivables transactions it can take a long time to populate the Collections Management Transactions Inquiry window when trying to make notes in Collections Management or printing receivables Statements.The solution is to run the Routines>Sales>Paid Transaction Removal process (run it first in Project Accounting if using PA). Paid transaction removal is something of a misnomer, it doesn’t delete transactions but moves them from the open table to the history table. This speeds up population of the Collections Main Transactions Inquiry window or printing of receivables Statements because Dynamics GP doesn’t have to sort through all the paid transactions.
