accounts payable payment Processing

Payment Selection Register

Last Revised: 01/10/14

The Payment Selection Register is a list summarizing all invoices that have been selected for payment.

The invoices are listed alphabetically by the vendor's alphasort name. (Vendors with a credit balance will not appear on this Register. A listing of these vendors can be found on the A/P Ageing Report on the APR menu.)

Normally this document is not retained as an accounting document but is used as a worksheet from which to make any necessary adjustments before the checks are printed.

Usually a register is printed for only one batch at a time. However, for those customers who have several operators processing a large volume of payables, Dynamo supports multiple simultaneous payment selection batches.
