End of day

This program runs the end of day for Accounts Payable and handles all the processing that has to be done.

The end of day processing run may be carried out at different times of the day. In most cases the end of day processing should not take more than a few minutes during which the following tasks will be performed.

  • An audit trail listing all today’s Accounts Payable transactions sequenced by creditor, invoice number (APR080).
  • The control number is incremented on the system control file.
  • Job submitted to load the current period’s AP figures into Infomaster. The APCEOD submits the BI_APDAILY job that loads the current days/periods AP figures into InfoMaster. This is done immediately after the AP daily transaction file is created.
Note

Accounts Payable transactions are updated to General Ledger in real time; not in Accounts Payable end of the day.
