What to look out for (Do's);

  • When a new Cash/Bank Account is maintained in the Chart Of Accounts (01.260.00), it must be given a currency denomination on the Currency field. 
  • When you add an account to the Cash Account Maintenance (20.250.00), ensure that the 'Accept Updates from GL Transactions' check box is selected for GL transactions to update Cash Manager. 
  • Use Cash Account Transfer (20.020.00) to record any transfers of amounts between Cash/Banks Accounts of the same currency denominations that have been defined in Dynamics SL.
  • Use Cash Account Transaction (20.010.00) to record any transfers of amounts beteween Cash/Bank Accounts of different currency denominations that have been defined in Dynamics SL.
  •  Ensure that the Transaction Date always corresponds to the Period to Post when entering transactions that update the Cash Manager Balances. Note: Look out for the warning message that's popped by the system when those two values do not match.
  •  Use the Reconciliation mode on Cash Account Transaction to determine whether to reconcile the entry by Detail or Batch (image below). When Batch is used, the Reference and Date in the Reconciliation mode section is used in Bank Reconciliation as well as the total amount of the batch. When Detail is used, the deatil records in the lower grid are used in Bank Reconciliation.

  • Exercise caution when using OM and OD entry types in Cash Account Transaction, those entries create one sided entries only on the Cash/Bank Account side in Cash Manager and do not update the General Ledger.
  • Review the values in the GLTRAN.S4Future11 for those transactions entered in the General Ledger that did not or should not have gone over to Cash Manager.

What to avoid (Don'ts);

  • Do NOT use initialize mode to delete batches from General Ledger that have update Cash Manager Balances.
  • Do NOT use Cash/Bank Account in the detail level area of screens such AP Voucher & Adjustment Entry (03.010.00) or AR Invoice and Memo (08.010.00).
  • Do NOT define Cash/Bank Accounts in setup screens except for setup screens that require defining the default Cash/Bank Account.
  • Do NOT use Cash/Bank Account as the default account for any Entry Type.
  • Do NOT change the Date or Period in initialize mode in an already-released GL Batch, It does not update Cash Manager.
