AR501


AR501 - Customer Conversion

**Form Purpose
Run Customer Conversion (AR501) to import customer records to the Lawson
Accounts Receivable system from a file created by an external source.

**Processing Effect
The Update Option is used to edit only or edit and update the customer
records. The program edits the external data to protect the integrity of the
Accounts Receivable data.

The program creates a report in customer 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, customers added, customer comments added, and
errors.

Note This program updates customer transaction period totals. AR502
(Transaction Conversion), AR503 (Payment Conversion), AR504 (Application
Conversion) do not update customer period totals.
