Hi,
Following are the things that could cause difference.
* The Historical Aged Trial Balance report is printed with
restrictions.
Print the Historical Aged Trial Balance report again with only a date
restriction.
* Not all accounts payable accounts are viewed in General Ledger.
Make sure that you view all accounts payable accounts in General
Ledger.
* Batches in Payables Management were posted to General Ledger.
The batch in General Ledger was changed or edited before it was
posted.
* Adjustments to the accounts payable account may have been entered
directly in General Ledger.
These transactions update the account in General Ledger.
However, these transactions do not update the Historical Aged Trial
Balance report.
* The date range on the Detailed Trial Balance report in General
Ledger does not match
the date range on the Historical Aged Trial Balance report in Payables
Management.
When you print the Historical Aged Trial Balance report, click to
select the
GL Posting Date check box in the Select Transactions For Report Using
area.
* Transactions were posted in Payables Management. However, these
transactions
were not posted to General Ledger if they were for beginning
balances.
If the Post To General Ledger check box is not selected in the Posting
Setup window
for the Purchasing series , the transactions will be posted to
Payables Management.
However, these transactions will not be posted to General Ledger.
* The Track Discounts Available in GL check box is selected in the
Payables Management Setup window.
Then, the net amount of the invoice will be posted to General Ledger.
Additionally, the remaining amount is posted to a discounts available
account.
Only the net amount will appear on the Detailed Trial Balance report
in General Ledger.
However, the invoice displays the gross invoice total on the
Historical Aged Trial Balance in Payables Management.
* Documents were voided in a different period than they were
originally posted.
The Detailed Trial Balance report in General Ledger may not match the
Historical Aged Trial Balance report.
For example, assume an invoice was entered on 1/1/2007. This invoice
was voided on 2/1/2007.
A General Ledger Detailed Trial Balance report is printed for 2/1/2007
- 2/28/2007.
The voided transaction will appear on the report.
If a Historical Aged Trial Balance is printed by using the same date
range,
the voided document will not print on the report because it has been
voided.
* If you want to balance the accounts payable account balance in
General Ledger to the Historical Aged Trial Balance report for a
certain period,
the balances from the Historical Aged Trial Balance report must be
reconciled to the net change
on the Detailed Trial Balance in General Ledger for the same period.
* If you want to balance the accounts payable account balance in
General Ledger to the Historical Aged Trial Balance report for a day
that is not in a certain period,
determine whether Payables Management has ever been balanced.
If Payables Management has never been balanced, the beginning balances
may be incorrect.
In this situation, balance the most current period first, and then
reconcile the previous months in reverse order.
* If posting interruptions have occurred, batches may not have been
posted
correctly to General Ledger, to Payables Management.
* Not all General Ledger batches were posted.
* When you print the Historical Aged Trial Balance report, you did not
click to select
the following check boxes in the Exclude area:
* Unposted Applied Credit Documents
* Zero Balance
* Credit Balance
* Activity
Click to select these check boxes, and then print the Historical Aged
Trial Balance report.
Note If you want to match the General Ledger Detailed Trial Balance
report
and the Historical Aged Trial Balance report by specific documents,
click to clear the Fully Paid Documents check box.
* If you use Multicurrency Management when you revalue,
you selected to post to the Purchasing Offset Account.
