Automatic Merging of Recurring Payables

Abacus Accounting will prompt you so that you can automatically merge the recurring payables when they are due to be posted.

This feature must be set up in Abacus Accounting as follows:

• Your company preferences must include a date for Next A/P Merge Date, which is the date for merging recurring journal entries.

• You must select Prompt me about merging Recurring Payables in Workstation Options.

Follow these steps to automatically merge recurring payables.

1. The date you entered for Next A/P Merge Date in your company preferences, you will be prompted to add the payable. For example, if the original payable date was January 15, then you will be prompted to add the same payable on the fifteenth day of every month thereafter. Select to add the payable.

2. The payables will now appear in the Enter/Post Payables window where they can be processed as normal payables.
