Money Reports & Processes

There are variety of reports under the Money menu.

There are variety of reports under the Money menu.  Below is a listing, by menu grouping, with descriptions of those various reports.  For more information about running reports, refer to the Report Wizard section.

Daily Batch Control:

Daily Batch Control is a grouping of commonly performed tasks in the AMS Menu, under Money, dealing with the collection and processing of financial transactions.  The five steps in processing are shown here and may be selected from the menu. The options to print the Batch Details and Payments Proof List and Batch Shippers are optional and usually associated with online store sales.

The Batch Audit Journal is a mandatory step and you cannot post your transactions to the accounting system without having printed this journal. If you change a transaction after printing the journal, the AMS knows and will not let you post until you re-print the journal. Once a batch has been posted to accounting, the transactions in the batch are locked and the Adjustment Wizard is required to make any changes. 

NOTE: A Sales History report will not correlate to a Batch Audit Journal GL Summary because the batch may include adjustments to invoices created in prior batches and time frames outside of the date range entered when running the Sales History report.

Contact Reports
This page prints the reports specific to contacts. Many of these can be emailed directly to the contacts. If the report can be emailed the option to do so will appear when the report is selected. If you select the option to email the report the

Batch Invoices
Please select an Open batch from the drop down list, and click the journal button of your choice. Invoices are printed and addressed to the Bill To Contact of the order. The Invoice lists each of the items and if the ship to contact is different than the bill to contact, the ship to contact's address is printed along with the item they are to receive. If you select an email body the AMS will bulk print the invoices for contacts without emails and then send out individual emails with the appropriate invoice attached.

Once a batch has been posted to accounting the transactions in the batch are locked. The invoices are still available by selecting the Posted radio button and selecting the batch.

One to stay in your office as a suspense copy of shipments in process and two to go to the office or person doing the shipping. They should annotate the shipper with the quantity actually sent, place one copy in the box to be shipped, and return one copy to you to match up with the suspense copy and make any adjustments in the quantity shipped.
  • 3" x 4" Shipping Labels

Business Office:

The Business Office (Finance, Accounting Department, or however it is referred to in your organization) is the focal point for financial management and accounting.  They establish the accounts used to record deposits, sales, refunds and adjustments. These accounts enable the linking of AMS and Web transactions to the accounting system.

The Business Office has access to all of the Batch Control Records and they control the posting of batches to the accounting system. They manage the deferred income accounts and receivables.

Batch List Report
There are two reports on this page. The first is the Batch Control Sheet which may be printed by the Business Office and placed as a cover sheet on a batch going out to a program area for data entry. If the control total value is entered in the batch control record, it will show on this sheet and provide guidance to the program area the total they must match.

This page also prints a summary level listing of all batches within the date range specified. Totals are broken out by Cash/Check, Credit Card and Inter-departmental transfers.

  • Batch Control Record- cover sheet on a batch going out to a program area for data entry.
  • Batch List- this report runs for a date range and batch status (all, posted, unposted) and returns BatchID, BatchDescription, AcctCompany, ControlDate, Posted, Type, Payment Method, Count of Transactions, Total Payment Amount, CC Processing. Only those batches with transactions are shown in this report; those that weren't used are omitted.

Batch Posting
The primary purpose of these reports is to post your daily batch work to your accounting system. The batch is automatically scanned for errors and if any are found the batch will not be posted and you will be presented with a batch error report. If no errors are found the batch is date stamped with the posting date and is no longer available for new transactions and payments. To make changes after posting you must use the Adjustment Wizard.

The posting of a batch makes it no longer available for use.  This also finalizes all the credit and debt transactions as well as deferred revenue as a part of the posting process.  If a batch is posted in error, there is an Un-Post a Batch utility that can be used.

For your convenience you may also print the full batch audit journal from here or just print the GL Journal found at the end of the batch audit journal. You may also recall and reprint the error report.

Please select a batch from the drop down list, and click the Run Now ! or the Submit Job button.

The optional posting to your accounting system will generate an output file to download. Hold down the Ctrl key while requesting this file in order to override your workstation's security blocker.

  • Reprint the full Batch Audit Journal
  • Reprint the Posting Journal Only

GL Journal Recap
This report is actually three reports in one; all for the same from-thru date range. They are used to balance activities in the AMS with your accounting system's General Ledger.

The first report is a consolidated GL Journal for all posted activity within the date range. Unposted batch values will NOT appear on the report.

The second report is a listing of all the batches within the date range that have not yet been posted to accounting. This is a very important step after each month closes because if there are un-posted batches in the AMS, the financial statements out of the accounting system for the month may be incomplete!

The third report is a repeat printing of each of the GL Journals for batches that have been posted. This is a great journal-by-journal check with the accounting system to make sure all was entered correctly.

You may print the reports one at a time or all together as a group.

  • All Reports
  • Consolidated GL Journal
  • List of Unposted Batches

Deferred Income
The AMS defers income when instructed to do so by the program code (HotKey). The amount deferred can be from a single lump-sum deferral to a spread of the amount over the days and months of the entitlement.  The Deferred Income section of this guide goes into details on the different deferral methods.

There are six reports to assist you in managing deferred income. The Income Monthly pair of reports document the deferral actions to move deferred income to earned income for one, user-selected month. The report is available in detail with individual names and in summary with totals only.

The Income Future pair of reports document the starting balances as of the beginning of a user-selected month and into the future. The report is available in detail with individual names and in summary with totals only. The totals should equal the account balances in your accounting system.

The Deferred Income and Sales pair give you an annual picture of available income by month from actual sales and sales that were previously deferred.

  • Deferred Income Monthly Details- Every time funds are deferred, the AMS makes an entry in the database for the contact, item and month of deferral. This information may be selected for a specific user-defined month and year. The purpose of the report is to identify the funds that should be transferred by a GL Journal transaction directly in your accounting system. The detail version of the report lists each item, the bill to contact, and, if different, the ship to contact. The totals are accumulated by GL Account numbers, by accounting company and in total.
  • Deferred Income Future Details- The purpose of the future report is to list the beginning balances by a GL Journal starting with the user-specified month and year and into the future. The totals represent what should be found as the beginning balances within the accounting system. The detail version lists each item, the bill to contact, and, if different, the ship to contact. The totals are accumulated by GL Account numbers, by accounting company and in total.
