APCDISTRIB FILE Distribution Interface The Distribution Conversion file is used by the Invoice Interface program to convert or interface invoice distribution records to the Lawson Accounts Payable system. When you run AP520 (Invoice Interface), the system reads records in this file for conversion or interface into the Invoice Distribution file. When Distribution Interface records and associated Invoice Interface records are successfully converted or interfaced, distribution interface records are purged from this file. You can use AP52.3 (Distribution Interface) to add records to the interface file or maintain records already loaded into the file before conversion or interface to the Lawson Accounts Payable system.
