On this panel you can automatically generate new or work with existing recurring invoices for the selected schedule. Note: If recurring invoices have not been generated for the selected schedule, then the subfile of this panel is empty. Click Create invoices to start the generation.

Recurring invoices’ different states

A recurring invoice can be in either of the following states:

State Description
Available for processing The recurring invoice status is Blank (Active). No A/P invoice is created, and no batch or journal number has been updated. The transaction amount and currency is the exact or estimated invoice amount and currency according to the recurring invoice schedule definition or the recurring invoice. At this stage, you can make changes to the recurring invoice.
Currently being processed The invoice is an A/P invoice, which is indicated by a batch number. The associated A/P invoice information will be shown. The transaction amount and currency will be the A/P invoice transaction amount and currency, respectively. The recurring invoice status will be B (Included in open batch).
Already processed As soon as the Transaction file is updated, the recurring invoice receives status C. This could be for one of the following reasons:

  • An A/P invoice has been created from the recurring invoice, but exists in an open batch (status B) which is indicated by a batch number.
  • The invoice is an A/P invoice which is indicated by a journal number.

At this stage, all associated A/P invoice information is shown on the applicable panels. The transaction amount and currency is the A/P invoice transaction amount and currency, respectively. You cannot make any changes to the recurring invoice.

Recurring invoice status

A recurring invoice can have one of the following statuses:

Options

Change The schedule definition is automatically retrieved to all recurring invoices generated from the schedule. Select this option to manually override the schedule definition for an individual recurring invoice. Note: You can only change a recurring invoice that is active.
Print Select this option to print information from the recurring invoice.
Contra The schedule contra accounting definition is automatically retrieved to all recurring invoices included in the schedule. Select this option to manually override the contra accounting for an individual recurring invoice.
Inactivate Select this option to inactivate a recurring invoice. The recurring invoice and all active contra accounting will be marked as inactive. To physically remove inactivated recurring invoices from the database, you have to run the A/P recurring invoice reorganization routine. If all recurring invoices are inactivated for a schedule, the schedule will then be automatically inactivated, as well. Note: Only active records can be inactivated.
Re-activate Select this option to re-activate an inactivated recurring invoice and its contra accounting. Note: Only records marked as inactive can be re-activated.

Function keys

Create invoices Only shown in maintenance mode and if recurring invoices are not created for the selected schedule. Create the recurring invoices in accordance with the definition of the schedule you are working with. The invoices are automatically generated when you click this function key. Note: You can create recurring invoices for an inactive schedule, but then, the invoices receive status I (Inactive). In this case, you can only view the invoices’ details, until you re-activate the schedule and consequently the invoices.
