AR504 - Application Conversion

**Form Purpose
Run Application Conversion (AR504) to import cash application and adjustment
records to the Lawson Accounts Receivable system from a file created by an
external source.

**Processing Effect
The open amount of each transaction associated with the  application and
adjustment records is reduced by the application and adjustment amounts. The
Update Option is used to edit only or edit and update the application records.
The program edits the external data to protect the integrity of the Accounts

and totals for the number of records processed, application records added, and
total errors.
