Utility - Redistribute - Creditors
Menu Selection: Document - Utility - Redistribute - Creditors
Purpose
This document allows the user to redistribute a range of creditors.
Prerequisites
You should determine that there is a distribution error with the creditor(s). Normally a distribution error is identified by *** on the Creditors - Aged Trial Balance report.
Context
The redistribute utility removes incorrect, or one sided, distribution records.
This utility should only be applied to one creditor at a time, and only to creditors who's accounts have distribution errors. Although this utility can be run over all creditors, on a largish database this could take several hours.
