This enhancement provides the opportunity to post all the detailed information from the accounts payable module into general ledger (GL). With the standard programs the postings are all subtotaled by account and batch number before posting to GL. When using this enhancement each entry results in a similar entry in GL.

The structure of the GL posting file provides the opportunity to include additional information. When the entries are transferred the description includes the vendor number, the invoice number and the company name, in addition to the standard information. When reviewing the postings in General Ledger, this additional information is available.

No setup is required. It is possible to flag accounts so only the summary will be posted. This flag affects the selected accounts only. A new field has been added to the GL account file to indicate if the account should be posted in summary. If this field is changed from "N" TO "Y" it will not post the detail of the account, but will instead use the summary information.
