Transaction Batch Codes

Use the Transaction Batch Codes function to define codes for posting sales, miscellaneous credits, and cash receipts. Each transaction can be assigned to a batch code, and then transactions can be posted by batch code. Batch codes are useful in network environments. They enable many users to enter and post transactions without interfering with each other.

Batch Codes are available for both the Accounts Receivable and Sales Order applications; you must set up batch codes to be used with Accounts Receivable in the Accounts Receivable application.
