Is it possible to offset a SUCHECK with an SUPOA? We have an issue with an Open SUCHECK not being able to be seen or used in Mixed Payments when selecting the Payment Doc No column. An error appears saying, “Could not find unique matching value for xxxx” There are 2 SUCHECK xxxx and 2 SUCHKPOA xxxx. 1 of each was cancelled. How do you go about clearing the SUCHECK?
Hi,
What is the status of the supplier check? Traditionally checks need to be cashed at some point. The cashing clears off any open items relating to the check payment.
Hi Thomas,
The SUCHECK is still showing as open in the Supplier Analysis. Currently the system is showing 2 SUCHECK and 2 SUCHKPOA with the same number. 1 shows as Cancelled. What happened was that the user voided the check because they believed there to be an issue. After voiding the SUCHECK they then moved it back to printed status. The check itself has been cash by the supplier. As a temporary measure we have created an SUPOA to the Supplier for that amount. I am looking to finding a way to

Hi,
Supplier checks is an interesting process in IFS. In terms of “open Items” checks are special.
First in US (and some other areas of the world - but not all) when we create a check in IFS multiple records are created. Typically when reviewing AP (from US) we would use the option to exclude open payment documents. From an AP / GL perspective once we print a supplier check (for AP invoices) those invoices are seen as paid (no longer open). Same concept belongs to the described open items.
When the check is cashed, we essentially clear off those open item records that were created by the check. See the supplier check screen and see the status of the check, If the check is printed state, you need to cash it. In the text, it was stated that the supplier received and cashed the check, that’s good, but the check in IFS must also need to be cashed.
Common settings when reviewing AP open items and when using checks. The exclude open pay docs is the important filter.

I see so the system mainly sees it as cashed even though it still has an Open Amount. What would be the way to correct this to clear it? Would it be required to Void it again? How would I clear this up?

Hi,
Go to this screen… search for the check. Check the status. If this check is as described, meaning the supplier received and deposited the check, and the bank processed it, then the check needs to be cashed. If the money was never really sent (not what was previously written) then it can be voided.

Thank you I was not aware of manually cashing a check.
