Applies-to Doc. No. Field, Gen. Journal Line Table
Specifies if the journal line will be applied to an already-posted document. If this is the case, enter the number of the document that will be applied to.
The field is used only if the account type is a customer or vendor account.
Important
If the journal line will be applied to more than one entry at the same time, you must use the Set Applies-to ID function instead of this field. This function does not use the Applies-to Doc. Type field or the Applies-to Doc. No. field, but uses the Applies-to ID field instead.
You apply a journal line, for example, if a credit memo must be applied to a posted invoice, or an invoice must be applied to an installment payment.
To see the open entries, choose the field.
Important
If you select a document number from the list, the Applies-to Doc. Type field will be filled in automatically. If you enter the document number directly, you must also select the Applies-to Doc. Type. Otherwise the program will search for a document number of the type "blank."
If the Amount field contains 0 when you fill in the Applies to Doc. Type and Applies to Doc. No. fields, then the program will automatically fill in the Amount field. The amount entered will be:
Total amount of the document you are applying to minus any payment discount granted. Payment tolerance is not taken into account.
You can read more about application under Apply Customer Entries.
