Post A/P Items

When you post an A/P Item, FIMS will create a new Open Item for each posted item. If you are using the accrual method and the interface to General Ledger is active, posting will also create the appropriate debits and credits in the General Ledger Journal.

Refer to Activating the Interface to General Ledger for more information.

Note: Once you post Vouchers, they appear in the Open Items Data Grid instead of the Item Entry Data Grid.

1. Run an error-free A/P Item Edit Report.

2. Click Post A/P Items on the FIMS Viewer menu bar. A message appears to inform you whether G/L is active and whether the interface between A/P and G/L is active. It also asks if you are ready to post.

3. Click Yes to post the A/P Items and view the Posting report in the FIMS Viewer.
   Example: A/P Items Posting Report

Once you post the items, you are given the option to Edit and Post G/L Journal entries directly from the Posting report. Refer to Posting General Ledger from the A/P Posting Report for more information.
