Previewing a Posting

This process displays posting transactions to be made when a credit note is posted to the account ledger.

To preview a posting:

    The Ford GWE Claims menu is displayed.

  2. Select the Claim payments menu option.

    The Service and Repair Payments menu is displayed.

  3. Select the Service and repair payments option.

    If there is more than one Point-of-Sale company on your Autoline system, a menu displays a list of them, in which case you must select the required Point-of-Sale company.

    The Ford GWE Claim Payments form is displayed.

    Note: In the event of non-valid accounts existing, a list of non-valid accounts is displayed instead of the Ford GWE Claim Payments form, so that you can rectify them before Autoline posts them.

  4. Select Tools > Search from the menu bar or click the Search toolbar button Search2.gif.

    The Credit Search form is displayed.

  5. Enter your Search criteria and click Search.

    A list of credit notes is displayed.

    Tip: Un-posted credit notes have blank Date posted and Posted? columns.

    You are returned to the Ford GWE Claim Payments form populated with details of the selected credit note.

  7. Select the Credit notes > Posting preview option from the menu bar or click the Preview toolbar button PostingPreview.gif.

    One of the following happens:

    1. Posting transactions to be made when the credit note is posted to the account ledger are displayed on the Posting Preview form.

    2. An Invalidity Reasons form is displayed containing a list of reasons why the credit note failed validation.
