===GL Distribution Tab===
====General Information====
The GL Distribution Tab is there to assign the correct corresponding accounts for the invoice.

[|][|][|][imageauto|AP Invoice Master GL Distribution Tab|{UP}/APInvoiceMasterGLDistThumb.png|^{UP}%2fAPInvoiceMasterGLDist.png]

====Account Numbers====
The GL Dist tab specifies the GL Account Distributions of your Invoice amount.

The '''Control Account''' is the Payables account specified on the CID Maintenance screen, unless the vendor has another control account specified in the Sold From screen.

'''An auto-balance account number will appear in the grid by default.  It will be marked red and cannot be edited.  

It will be one of three accounts:'''

1. If you are creating an invoice without a PO Receipt and the vendor does not have a default GL account, the account number will be the default Purchase Clearing account (as listed in the CID Maintenance screen).

2. If you are creating an invoice without a PO Receipt and the vendor has a default GL account, the account number will be the vendor's default account (as listed in the Sold From screen).

3. If a PO Receipt is being invoiced, the account number will be the GL account specified on the PO line item.

====Change GL Distributions====
If you want to change the GL Distribution from the auto-balance account, click the ADD button and add another account and amount.

The amount on the auto-balance account will automatically change according to the amount you entered.

'''The Invoice Total and Distribution Total must match before the AP Invoice can be saved.'''

====Setting Default Accounts====
You may set a default account for any vendor by going to the Organizations screen and clicking on the Sold From attribute once you have selected the vendor.  Enter the account in the Default Acct field.

You can also set a default account directly from the GL Distribution tab.  Once you have entered the account number, click the '''Make Def''' button.  

If the default account is incorrect (or has changed), you can click the '''Clr Def''' button to delete the default account.

===PO Receipts Tab===
The PO Receipts Tab is used to select which received PO lines should be linked to the AP Invoice. While creating a new AP Invoice, the Start Date and End Date fields on this tab can be used to load all lines that have been received on a PO during the entered date range. After clicking "Load", the date fields will disappear.

'''Inv Cost''' - This field is used to adjust the cost of the part if the invoice cost differs from the receipted cost.  '''It does not affect the cost of the part in inventory.''' Entering a different cost here will properly clear out the PO clearing account and will divert the over/under amount to the PO variance account.  

===PO's On Invoice Tab===
The PO's on Invoice Tab allows one to select the PO's that are on the invoice being put in.
