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.
