  • Calculate outstanding activity via Pooled Cash setup
    • Instructs the program to apply each outstanding AP check to the cash account in the fund or subfund for the invoice expense rather than applying all outstanding checks to the pooled cash account, when selected
  • AP settings > Check settings > Default cash account = Pooled Cash Balance Sheet: 
    • Defaults pooled cash account to AP batch
    • Pooled cash account Inherited by AP Invoice
      • Post API hits expense account Fund/Sub-Division and Accounts Payable control
      • Cash disbursement APP would hit pooled default cash fund account, then hit Accounts Payable control for Fund/Sub-Division and then DTDF would trigger to balance out all funds involved for debit/credit.
  • Reconciliation could be difficult as unpaid or outstanding AP checks could be on Fund/Sub-Division and Accounts Payable control while outstanding AP checks tied are cleared off the pooled cash account
