POST CASH DISBURSEMENTS

Use this screen to post payments of vouchers to the general ledger. This process debits the A/P liability Account/Organization for each voucher that was paid. The offsetting credit entry is to the Cash Account/Organization for which the check was printed. The period is assigned to the check, and the Check History tables are updated when the check is printed.

Post the checks that are printed to the general ledger in any given accounting period before beginning the closing procedures that produce the financial statements. You can post them as they are printed or at the end of the month.
