Post or Modify a Recurring Transaction in a Future Period

After you set up a recurring transaction file, you can modify and select to post the file in future periods.

To post or modify the recurring transaction file in a future period:

  1. On the Navigation menu, click Transaction Center > Transaction Posting.
  2. In the Transaction Type field on the Transaction Posting form, select the type of transaction.

    The transaction type list is filtered based on your security role's access rights. If you use multiple companies, this list is further refined based on the active company. See the Accounting tab of Role Security for more information.

  3. Select the line of the recurring transaction that you want to open and click Open. The transaction entry file opens with the previously entered dates and amounts.
  4. To change transaction dates, click File > Change Dates and specify a new transaction date for the recurring transaction file on the Change Transaction dialog box. For AP vouchers, you can also specify a new invoice date and payment date. This changes all dates in the file.
  5. To enter a new amount for the transaction file, click File > Clear Amounts to enter a new amount for the transaction. DPS removes the amount from the detail lines of the recurring transaction file. You can specify new amounts as appropriate. You may perform this step if the amounts in the file change each posting run.
  6. To reverse the amount of the previous recurring transaction, click File > Reverse Amounts. DPS reverses the amounts on the detail lines of the recurring transaction and on the New File dialog box. This is useful for setting up reversing journal entries.

    If you previously posted the recurring transaction file, the Resubmit option becomes enabled.

  7. Click File > Resubmit to make this file available for posting.
