After posting a manual check batch it returned with an error 'amount applied is greater than amount owing' I am not sure why this is so ...could an explanation be given.

Hello ANV,

The amount you wrote the cheque for is greater than the amount that was owing on the invoice. Perhaps an adjustment or previous cheque had reduced the amount owing?

Actually that was my first thought but after reviewing the posting..the amount selected for the cheque does match the total invoices selected for payment so still I am a bit baffled

Does Payables pass the integrity check?

Do you mean if when i posted the batch if it came back with errors? if so no it didn't have errors.

Hello ANV,

No, I mean does the function File | Data Integrity Check run without errors?

i dont normally run that function ...is it too late to do so if i posted the batch already and the said message was what i got after doing so

Hello NAV,

It's never too late to run that function. It should be run at least weekely. Run it (orhave someone run it), and make sure that it runs without reporting any errors.

Now I'm confused about your question. Did the batch post properly, or did it produce an error batch?

Hello ANV,

After the posting, was the check placed in an Error batch? I suspect that it was.

If you edit the manual check entry, does the ‘Status’ show ‘Deleted’. If it does, the invoices may have been paid by another transaction.

View the Vendor Transactions and make sure that the Current Amount is not 0.00.

it does say deleted! bal is $0.00 so what do i do now!
