Summary A/P Ledger
Access this report using Reports>Accounts Payable>Summary A/P Ledger. |
Use this report to print a list of invoices including the amount due. This is a summary style ledger that contains data from the detail ledgers and summarizes all entries for an A/P invoice, on account credit, applied credit, or check. The detail entry amounts for an invoice are netted together creating a summary amount due. This report:
- Assists you in reconciling accounts payable balances. It is also useful for audit purposes or for researching vendor payment questions. Use the Detail A/P Ledger report to see an individual record for each invoice. Again, the Summary A/P Ledger report summarizes all entries within an invoice, while the detail report prints each entry in detail.
- Contains the Chart Settings feature, which allows you to generate custom line, bar, column, or pie charts from reports. See Chart Settings - Setup Tab.

Account Level Security is available for this report. This feature allows the Administrator to define the account codes and related amounts a user can view in the report. When account level security is activated by the Administrator for the organization (Security>Set Up Account Level Segments) and enabled for a user or group (Security>Set Up Account Level Security), the report will only print account information the user is allowed to see. Note that if a user does not have Account Level Security enabled, the user will see all account codes.
If the "Print Disclaimer on Report" check box is selected on the Security>Set Up Account Level Segments form, "This report may be affected by Account Level Security" prints in the header of this report. In that case, an * also prints after the report title.

The Invoice Source Amount, Source Currency, Source Currency Description, Source Beginning Balance, Source Current Balance, and Source Net Change columns are only available if the Administrator has installed and added this module (Organization>Add a Module). "Source" currency columns follow the formatting of the source currency, while other currency columns follow the functional currency. The functional currency was determined by the Administrator when the organization was created (File>New Organization>Functional Currency panel).
