Bookstore Disbursements and Adjustments Window

Use this window to import the Bookstore data file into AR (i.e., create transactions in the Transaction History table. When transactions are created, various accounts in the Business Office are affected.)

·       The Trial Run option allows you to create an audit report without generating any transactions. This report displays a detailed list of all transactions and allows you to identify and correct any errors before the data is imported.

·       The Actual Update option generates charges that are posted to the AR module and automatically creates an audit report displaying a list of all the transactions. Transactions generated by an Actual Update are posted in AR with a JL (Journal Entry) source code, Point of Sale description, and an S (suspended) status.

You can enter the full directory path or browse for the directory path to where the Source File is stored on your computer by using the Open File button to open the Save File As window, where you can browse the directory to where the file is located on your computer and select the file you want to import from Bookstore into AR.

If you have selected Open items on the A/R Configuration window and are licensed to use Financial Aid Interface, the Financial Aid Code for Transactions column is available and a value is required. The default value can be changed by selecting the appropriate value from the drop-down window.

Files created to transfer data from AR to the Bookstore software are in ASCII format with an .asc extension.
