This feature allows the system to automatically create Accounts Payable vouchers from POS refunds when you use Alternate Tender type "AP Check." This applies to credit memos, negative sales, and negative invoiced orders.
Once the clerk completes the POS credit transaction for which an AP Check will be issued, the system adds the customer receiving the refund check to Vendor Maintenance using the information collected from the POS return. Using the newly-created vendor, the system then builds the Regular Voucher with the amount to be refunded. This voucher is passed off to Accounts Payable during normal Accounts Payable Passoff (APP) processing.
If desired, you can use the Directed Refunds feature to require the clerk to issue an AP check instead of a cash refund. You do this by using Directed Refund’s option 9434 "Refund with AP Check if original purchase was by cash or equivalent." Refer to the help topic "Directed Refunds Overview" for more information.
