Reviewing Receipts and Applications

You can review the applications for a receipt from the Receipts, Receipts Summary, or Applications window. In the Receipts window, use the Balances region to view the amount applied, unapplied, placed on-account or in claim investigation, any earned or unearned discounts, and the original amount of a receipt. In the Applications window, you can review all of the debit and credit items to which you have applied this receipt, or you can view only specific debit or credit items by executing a query.

You can also view summarized information about your receipts in the Receipt History window. The Receipt History window lists changes made to a receipt during its lifetime, including dates when the receipt was remitted, approved, confirmed, or reversed, and when each receipt state posted to your general ledger. You can also view the receipt amount at each phase and any functional currency gains or losses resulting from exchange rate adjustments. See: Foreign Currency Transactions.

You can view all activities against a receipt in the Activities window. Use this window to view each activity, its application date and amount, and status. You can also use the Activities window to view all activities against existing receipt applications (applied transactions).

You can view the total entered and functional amounts of your receipts in the Sums of Receipt Amounts window. The Sums of Receipt Amounts window displays the currency, count, entered amounts, and functional amounts of selected receipts.
