9.2 Creating and Setting Entries to Post

Purpose:  To create and set entries to post using ctcLink.

Audience:  Accounts Receivable staff

You create accounting entries from the pending items.  The Pending Group Generator creates these entries as a background process.  You can review the created accounting entries before posting them to the general ledger.

You can apply payments automatically or manually using one of these methods:

A payment was entered through a regular or express deposit or electronically by lockbox, EDI, bank statement, or a cash drawer receipt.  A payment ID was entered but no customer or payment reference information was provided.  The payment has a saved worksheet that is not set to post.  If any payment in a deposit has this status, you cannot change any deposit information, payment amounts, dates, or IDs.  If accounting entries have not been created, you can change identifying information,

You can use payment worksheet to manually apply payments to items and make partial payments.  After applying payments on the payment worksheet, you proceed to the Payment Worksheet Action page to select the appropriate posting option for the payments.

In this topic, your goal is to create and review accounting entries in ctcLink.
