Applying Class Distributions to an AP Invoice

A quick and easy walkthrough for applying class distributions to an AP invoice.

1. Start by navigating to Accounting → Accounts Payable → AP Invoices.

2. You’ll be taken to the AP Invoices screen, where newly created invoices appear in descending order. To begin, click the dark blue “New AP Invoice” button near the top.

3. On the New AP Invoice Ref screen, enter the vendor’s name in the first textbox, followed by the corresponding PO number in the PO # field. Then, click the dark blue “Next” button to proceed.

4. You will now be directed to the New AP Invoice page. Complete all required fields marked with red outlines, such as the vendor’s invoice number and the invoice date.

5. After entering the necessary invoice details, scroll to the bottom of the screen to locate the Expense Classes section. Ensure the expense class for the full invoice amount is updated from the vendor’s default class to the *Distributed* option.

6. After updating the expense class, scroll to the very bottom of the page and click the light purple Distributions button to begin the process for this vendor’s invoice.

7. You will now be directed to the Edit Invoice Distribution screen. Start by opening the AP Invoice Charge dropdown and selecting Invoice Grand Total. In this example, the payment will be allocated across three classes: Veal, Beef, and Poultry. Use the Distribute to Class dropdown to select the desired class. Then, either enter the distribution amount in dollars or as a percentage, and click Add/Update to apply the allocation.

8. As you click Add/Update, each distribution line will populate on the invoice. Continue this process for every applicable class, repeating the steps until the full invoice amount has been properly allocated across all intended expense classes.

9. Click the red Back button located on the right-hand side of the screen to return to the Change AP Invoice page. Once there, scroll down and click the dark blue Save & Details button. This will direct you to the Edit Invoice vs. PO Lines screen. From here, click the purple Pay All button to apply payment to the full invoice amount.

Note: Ensure that the PO line total exactly matches the total amount of the vendor’s invoice. If there is a discrepancy, the system will display an error message stating: "Vendor's Invoice Amount must equal all other amounts added together."

10. Click the purple Header button located on the right-hand side of the screen to return to the Change AP Invoice page. Once there, scroll to the bottom and select the blue Close & Flag to Post button. A confirmation prompt will appear asking, "Really flag this AP invoice for post to AP?" — click OK to proceed.

11. You will now be redirected back to the AP Invoices screen, where the most recently created invoices appear at the top of the list. To locate the invoice you just assigned class distributions to, adjust the filters at the top left of the screen: set Ready to Post to Yes and Posted to No. This will display all invoices that are prepared but not yet posted.

Once your AP invoice appears in the list, click the orange Post button located at the top right corner of the screen. A confirmation prompt will appear—click OK to proceed with posting the invoice.

2. On the AP Run Batches screen, use the Show dropdown menu in the upper right corner and select Posted/Printed to display all previously posted batches.

• Locate the specific run batch you intend to reverse and make note of its reference number, as this will be required in the reversal process.

• When you're ready to initiate the AP run batch reversal, click the dark blue “Add New” button located at the top of the screen.

3. You will now be on the New Run Batch screen. Begin by selecting the appropriate bank type, then enter the vendor associated with the payment you are reversing. From the Payment Type drop-down menu, choose the Reversal option.

4. After completing all required fields, click the dark blue Go to Payments button. Since "Reversal" is selected as the payment type, you’ll be redirected to the Run Batch Reversal screen. On this screen, you’ll see a single field labeled Past Run. Enter the reference number you noted earlier into this textbox and click the Load Run button. This will retrieve the AP payment associated with that batch for reversal.

5. After clicking the Load Run button, the reference number will be locked into the Past Run field, and the corresponding run batch for the selected vendor will appear. Under the Action column, locate the circular arrow icon—hovering over it will display the tooltip "Void this Payment." Click this icon to proceed with voiding the entire payment.

6. After clicking the circular arrow icon, the AP run batch is now officially voided. The total at the top of the page should be a negative number which means the reversal is successful. To finalize this AP run batch reversal & post it, click on the dark purple back to header button.

7. You’ll now be returned to the original screen. If the reversal was processed correctly, the Applied Amount will appear as a negative value. Verify that this number is negative, and once everything looks accurate, proceed by clicking the light blue Close Reversal button. A confirmation prompt will appear asking if you’re sure you want to close the run reversal batch. Click OK to complete and finalize the process.

8. After closing the reversal batch, you will be redirected back to the main AP Run Batches screen. The Show dropdown will now display batches marked as Ready to Post/Print. If needed, enter the payment run reference number in the search field at the top of the page and click Search to locate the specific reversal batch.

• Once you're ready to proceed and all information is confirmed, click the yellow Post/Print button. A confirmation prompt will appear, notifying you that this action will post the AP payment batch and credit Accounts Payable. Click OK to finalize.

9. After submitting the reversal, a green confirmation message will appear at the top of the screen indicating that the AP batch was successfully submitted. To review the reversal, navigate to the Show dropdown menu and select Posted/Printed to display all recent AP run batches, including reversals.

7. Return to the Credit Header
After applying the credit, you’ll now see both a pencil and an X icon under the Action column for the PO line you just updated. When ready, click the dark purple “Back to Header” button at the top of the screen to return to the credit header.

1. Begin by navigating to Accounting → Accounts Payable → AP Credits.

2. Once on the AP Credits screen, you'll see a mostly blank page with several textboxes and colored buttons at the top. On the right-hand side, locate the Show dropdown. Change the dropdown option from Ready to Post to In Progress. This will display all AP credits currently in progress.

Note: If your AP credit has already been closed, it will appear under the Ready to Post status. To reopen it, navigate to the credit header screen where you'll find a blue Re-Open button near the bottom. Click this to return the credit to editable status.

3. Find the AP credit you’re working on in the list. Under the Action column on the left, click the small black triangle icon to open the action menu.

4. From the list of available actions, select Edit Credit.

5. You’ll now be on the Change Credit Header screen. From here, you may edit the header details as needed. If adjustments to PO credit lines are required, navigate to the PO Lines section first, make your changes, then return to the header. Once finished, click Save & Exit to apply your updates and return to the main AP Credits screen.
