Outbound Accounting Workflow
This section describes creating an outbound accounting record in the accounting table for an outbound cash letter.
When determining what type of outbound accounting to perform, the outbound accounting task first
checks to see if the endpoint associated with the cash letter has an accounting type defined. If it
does, endpoint type accounting is assumed. This is used for endpoint sorted substitute check cash
letters. If there is no accounting type defined, the customer type associated with the endpoint is
used to look up the general ledger type in the customer type accounting table. The following
settings for the general ledger type indicator in customer type are available:
- Y
- General ledger accounting is performed
- N
- Non-general ledger accounting is performed
When determining the general ledger type, the accounting type of P, which signifies outbound batch (ICL), along with the customer type is used as a qualifier for accessing the customer type accounting table. (Inbound and adjustment accounting types are designated by D and A, respectively.) Table 2 contains the accounting, customer and general ledger types.
