How to: Suggest Purchase Accrual Payments

The program has a special feature that suggests purchase accrual payments. These payment suggestions are made by looking at posted purchase accrual entries that do not have an accompanying payment.

If an accrual plan has a check mark entered in the Post Payment w/ Document field, its accrual payments will be automatically posted with the documents from which they were generated, and will not appear when you instruct the system to suggest accrual payments in the Accrual Journal window. Also when then the Accrual plan is set up to use payment documents, no data will appear in the Accrual Journal window.

1. In the Search box, enter Plan Journal, and then choose the related link.
2. On the Actions tab, in the Functions group, choose Suggest Purchase Payments to open the Suggest Purchase Payment Entries window.
3. Fill in the fields on the Options FastTab.
4. On the Purchase Accrual Plan FastTab, you can set filters to select purchase accrual payments by accrual plan number and/or computation group.
5. On the Vendor FastTab, you can set filters to select purchase accrual payments by vendor number.
6. Choose the OK button to start the batch job.

When the batch job is finished, the purchase accrual amounts that have been selected for payment are listed in the accrual journal.
