CASH DISBURSEMENTS AND PRE-CHECK SELECTION REPORT USE OF DISCOUNT AND SYSTEM DATE

 

Concerning the Cash Disbursements and the Pre-Check Selection Report use of qualifying dates, the system uses the System Date and the Discount Date as a range to qualify discountable vouchers for payment. In the system design, it is necessary to use the System Date as the beginning date range for qualifying discountable vouchers for payment and the Discount Date entered on the parameter screen as the ending date. Without this implementation, the user would be allowed to select a voucher for payment based on a discount date that has exceeded today's date or system date. As a result of the system design, the system will not allow the user to qualify a voucher based on a discount date that has already passed the System Date.

Example: A posted voucher is recorded in Current Transactions file (APTRAN) with the

following dates:

DOCUMENT DATE: 10/01/93

RECPT/AGE DATE 10/01/93

DUE DATE: 11/01/93

DISC DATE: 10/10/93

On the CASH DISBURSEMENTS parameter screen the user enters these parameters:

EXAMPLE ONE:

PAY THROUGH DATE: 10/13/93

DISCOUNT DATE: 10/10/93 The voucher will not

SYSTEM DATE: 10/13/93 qualify for payment.

EXAMPLE TWO:

PAY THROUGH DATE: 10/13/93

DISCOUNT DATE: 10/10/93 The voucher will

SYSTEM DATE: 10/10/93 qualify for payment.
