Use the Register History Report program to print a report of all registers affecting the Accounts Payable balance. This provides a trace of what transpired to obtain the current AP balance. The optional update will remove the printed records preceding the first trace number for the next period without affecting any balances.
Registers that appear on this report include the Document Entry & Adjustments Register, the Check Register and the Vendor Balancing Register.
It is suggested that the report be printed as part of the end-of-period procedures. To prevent file overflow, the records should be removed once a month after the register is run.
Report information includes the following: AP trace number, register date, period, register number, register type, beginning AP balance, dollar amount, discount amount, adjustment amount and ending AP balance. The recap lists for each period the total dollar amount, discounts, adjustments and change in AP balance. The total number of traces (registers) listed is also included.
Access this program by choosing Accounts Payable>End of Period>Register History Report.
