AP - Invoice status Needs Revalidation

Hi

There is one invoice that was created in Dec 2007, the invoice status was "Needs Revalidation", yet periods from Dec 2007 till May 2008 were closed without validating that invoice?!!

when I tried to close AP for the month of June, 2008, the transaction appeared in the Period close Exceptions report.

my question is, can we close an AP period when there are invoices in such status "Needs Revalidation"??

I know we can sweep unaccounted transactions from one period to another, how do I know if that transaction was sweeped or not??????


Thanks alot

Hi,
The Invoice may be dated DEC, 07. But the Invoice distribution GL date would have been updated by the Sweep program to the first day of the Open period ie. Jun-08.

Also this invoice would have been sweeped till JUN-08. If you check the outputs of the 'Unaccounted Transactions Sweep Program', for the previous periods, you can see this invoice.

Hi,

Without sweeping a non validated , unaccounted invoice to next period , the AP period cannot be closed.

All such invoice/payments will appear in the period close Exceptions report.

Do check all fields , Date of creation , any adjustments etc of this invoice.
