AR502 - Transaction Conversion

AR502 (Transaction Conversion) lets you convert invoices, debit memos, credit
memos to the Lawson Accounts Receivable system from files created by an
external source. 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.
