                       Vendor Balance Conversion

The Vendor Balance Conversion file is used by the Vendor Conversion program
to convert vendor balance records to the Lawson Accounts Payable system. When
you run AP510 (Vendor Conversion), the system reads records in this file for
conversion into the Vendor Balance file. When Vendor Balance Conversion
records are successfully converted, they are purged from this file.
