Voucher History Inquiry

What can I do in this screen?

Use this screen to view voucher detail, checks disbursed, and PO detail for all posted accounts payable transactions. Using the subtasks available on this screen, you can view more detailed data, including specific A/P and/or PO voucher data by line, vendor labor and voucher notes, and payment totals broken down by check number.

Fields are empty when you enter this screen. To view voucher data, enter a date in the Fiscal Year field and use the Execute icon on the toolbar to access a range of data, limited by vendor, vendor name, status, voucher number, or PO number.

To view data for a single vendor, enter the vendor's ID or use Lookup in the Vendor field, then select the Execute button on the toolbar.

To view data for a single voucher, enter the voucher number and the fiscal year, and then select the Execute button on the toolbar.

Note:  If you have changed a vendor's name in the Vendors screen, remember that the Voucher History Inquiry screen uses the name the vendor had when you posted the transaction.

The Voucher History Inquiry screen is made up of one block, a table window, and seven subtasks. You can use them in the following manner:

When should I use this screen?

Use this screen whenever you need to view data for vouchers that you have already created in the Enter A/P Vouchers screen.

FAQs

I cannot see the voucher detail in this screen. Why is this?

If you have converted from System1 or another legacy system, you will find that you cannot access the Voucher detail lines from Voucher History Inquiry. During this type of conversion, the Voucher detail data does not usually migrate.

As a result, this information will not be accessible. The header information should be accessible.

The Voucher Detail line information is blank for some organizations, but not for others. Why?

This means that your company uses the Organizational Security feature and that the Org Security profile is not complete or updated. It was originally set up for the new organization, but the Update Org Security Profiles function was not executed.

Once you complete the Updateprocess, the information should appear correctly in the Maintain Vendor History screen.

How can I find out where a voucher was charged?

In the Vendor History Inquiry screen, specify the vendor information and highlight the transaction you need. Then open the AP Voucher Detailsubtask.
