Batch Post Service Invoices Batch Job

The Batch Post Service Invoices batch job allows posting several service invoices at a time. This can be an advantage if you have a large number of service invoices that must be posted. Before starting the batch job, you can choose which invoices will be posted.

Attention

It is important to enter all the necessary information on the service invoices before they are batch posted. Otherwise it is possible that they will not be posted. When the batch job has finished posting, a message is displayed showing how many of the invoices have been posted (for example, 9 out of 10).

To run the batch job, open the Service Invoice window and then click Posting, Post Batch.

You can define which invoices are included in the batch job by setting a filter on the invoice number. You can set additional filters on the tab by clicking the Field field, then clicking the AssistButton that appears to the right and selecting the relevant fields(s). You can also determine how the batch job is processed by filling in the fields on the Options tab. Fill in the fields as follows:

Service Invoice tab

No.: Enter the numbers of the service invoices to be posted. If the field is not filled in, all service invoices will be posted.

Status: Here you can specify the status of the service invoices you want the batch job to post. If you leave the field blank, the batch job will post all service invoices. To see the existing status, click the Filter field, then click the AssistButton that appears to the right of the field.

Click the up-arrow at the lower left-hand corner of the window to see the result of the filters you have defined for the table.

Options tab

Posting Date: Enter the date that the program will use as the document and/or posting date if you place a check mark in one or both of the following boxes.

If the posting date or document date on a document is blank, the date in this field is used even if you have not placed a check mark in the relevant box.

Replace Posting Date: Place a check in the box if you want to replace the service invoices' posting date with the date entered in the field above.

Replace Document Date: Place a check mark in the box if you want to replace the service invoices' document date with the date in the Posting Date field.

Calc. Inv. Discount: Place a check mark in the box if you want the program to calculate the invoice discount amount on the service invoices before posting.

Click OK to start the batch job. If you do not want to run the batch job now, click Cancel to close the window.
