Note: You can only change the batch information between customers.

  1. In the Batch Information dialog box, enter the new batch number for this posting, or click the down arrow and choose one of the available batch numbers.

  2. The Control G/L box displays the general ledger control number for this posting. This information comes from the A/R Control field in the (L2) G/L Master Numbers screen. This is the general ledger account for the accounts receivable balance, if you are live on general ledger. We recommend that you only change the A/R Control number in the (L2) screen and accept the default when posting in the Accounts Receivable Posting window. If you need to change the general ledger number, click this box to specify the general ledger control number for this posting. If you cannot recall the general ledger number, click FIND_A_RECORD16.gif to open the GL Account Query dialog box. For more details, see Selecting a G/L Account and In the GL Account Query Dialog Box.

Note: We recommend that you accept the default general ledger number in the Accounts Receivable Posting window. If you need to change the A/R control number, you should only do so in the (L2) screen.

  1. In the Post Date box, type a new date for this posting, or accept the default date. (You may need to enter a different date if you need to back date your postings. Perhaps the postings should have been made Friday, but you couldn't make them until Monday.)

  2. Click OK.
