Menu Path: Accounts Payable Payments Voucher Payment Authorize
Approve vouchers selected for payment.
Use Voucher Payment Authorize to release vouchers for payment if you have the authority to perform this function. Approval limits are set up in Accounts Payable Control Maintenance, and if a check is greater than a certain amount, or if all checks need to be approved, check approval is required.
To approve checks for payment:
Enter the batch number for which you are approving checks for payment in the Batch # field. If there are any checks to be approved, the information for the first check appears.
Verify that the information is correct, and click the Approve button in the ribbon to approve the check. You can use the buttons in the Navigation group in the Home tab in the ribbon to display information for each check in the batch that needs to be approved. You can then approve each check separately, or click the Approve All button in the ribbon to approve all checks in the batch that require approval. If you want to edit the selected amount, or add/remove vouchers selected for payment, click the Edit Payment Selections button in the ribbon, and use Voucher Payment Select to make your changes.
