Loading A/R Balances Manually

Use the Manual A/R Balance Loading program to load A/R balances for a customer without converting any history data.

To load A/R balances manually:

  1. From the A/R > Utilities menu, select Manual A/R Balance Loading to display the Manual A/R Balance Loading screen.

  2. In the Branch field, enter the branch, branches, or territories to which you want the data to post.

  3. In the Customer field, enter the name of the customer for which you are entering the A/R balances.

The system displays the customer's full name and address.

  1. In the Age from Date field, enter the date used to determine the balances in the aging buckets.

  2. In the Payment Terms field, the system populates the customer's default payment terms as defined in the credit control parameters in Customer Maintenance. If necessary, you can override the terms in this field with any other valid terms code. For more information, see, Defining Payment Terms and Credit Control Parameters.

  3. In the Future field, enter the amount of the customer's balance that is due, but that has not yet appeared on a statement.

  4. In the Current field, enter the amount of the customer's balance that has been billed and is due in the current 30-day period.

  5. In the 31-60 Days field, enter the amount of the customer's balance that is between 31 and 60 days overdue.

  6. In the 61-90 Days field, enter the amount of the customer's balance that is between 61 and 90 days overdue.

  7. In the 91-120 Days field, enter the amount of the customer's balance that is between 91 and 120 days overdue.

  8. In the Over 120 Days field, enter the amount of the customer's balance that is over 120 days overdue.

  9. In the Total A/R field, the system populates the total of all the A/R amounts entered.

  10. Use the Save hot key to load the data.

The balance loading program creates an invoice, using the product assigned to the Conversion A/R Loading Product control maintenance record, for each of the aging amounts entered with non-zero amounts. This balance loading program makes the customer's A/R aging match the A/R aging balances entered on the screen.
