AR502


AR502 - Transaction Conversion

**Form Purpose
Run Transaction Conversion (AR502) to import invoices, debit memos, credit
memos to the Lawson Accounts Receivable system from files created by an
external source.

**Processing Effect
The Update Option is used to edit only or edit and update the transaction
records. The program edits the external data to protect the integrity of the
Accounts Receivable data. The program creates a report in transaction number
order that includes each field that failed an edit, the field data, a
description of the error, and totals for the number of records processed,
invoices added, debit memos added, credit memos added, dispute records added,
transaction comments added, and total errors.

Note Multiple payment obligations (indicated if the conversion file's payment
sequence is greater than 1) will create one payment header record with
reference information (sales representative, terms code, user fields, and so
on) obtained from the first payment obligation record.
