AP Invoices represent transactions that carry amounts the company owes for purchasing goods or services from a Vendor. AP Credit Memos represent transactions that carry amounts owed to the company because of returns and/or credits on goods or services previously purchased from a Vendor.
This list view also contains columns for each Attribute that is set up for the 'AP Purchasing' and 'Items' attribute types. Because these are user defined, they are not included in the default view but can be added a saved layout. AP Purchasing and Items attributes are not included in the help documentation.

| Toolbar Icons | Description |
|---|---|
| Column Filter Show/Hide |  Toggles between displaying and hiding a filter row in the grid under the column headers. The filter row will be displayed by default if the Quick Column Filter is also implemented in the page. When enabled, this will allow users to type in text to filter by a specific column. |
| Edit |  Opens the selected record for editing. If a record is not selected, the page will either not open or will open the first record (depending on how the page was coded). |
| Excel |  Exports the contents of the grid to an Excel file that will automatically download. The contents that export are those that are visible to the user. Therefore, if the user has filtered the view, or excluded columns, only the contents in the grid will be exported. |
| Favorites |   Clicking on the star icon when it is an outline, adds the page to the 'My Shortcuts' tab and fills in the star. Clicking on the star icon when it is filled in (solid color), removes the page from the 'My Shortcuts' tab and returns the icon to an outline.
|
| Group By Show/Hide |  Toggles between displaying and hiding a row in the grid above the column headers to enable grouping by one or more column(s). Once displayed, users may drag and drop column headers to group by a specific column. Once the grid is grouped by a column(s), a subtotal footer row will display in the grouping for columns that have a page footer total. |
| Help |  Opens the online WIKI help page for the current page. |
| More Actions |
|
| New | Allows users to select the type of transaction or record they want to add. The list contains: Each Transaction Type (Invoice or Credit Memo) that only has one Transaction Class is displayed as just the Transaction Type Name (e.g., Invoice). Each Transaction Type that has more than one Transaction Class is displayed as Transaction Type Name-Transaction Class Name (e.g., Invoice-Home Office). The base list of Transaction Types includes:
|
When clicked, all the Reports that launch from the Print Dialog that are assigned to this page, and that the user has rights to (if Report Data Access is enabled) are displayed. | |
| Quick Column Filter |  Used to filter across all columns in the grid. When the user types text into the Quick Column Filter text box, the grid's Filter Row will be automatically hidden. The text in the Quick Column Filter text box automatically replaces any existing Filter Row filters. The results of the data immediately refresh as you enter text. |
| Refresh |  Re-queries the contents of the grid/page based on the Search Options or the default values for grids that do not support Search Options.
|
| Saved Layouts |  Displays the column layout lookup and related icons. This tool allows users to select a previously saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, forget/delete a layout and/or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to the layout, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Save Layout icon and save the changes to the column layout. The visibility of the Filter Row is also saved with a saved layout. The new layout can also be set as the default. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific). Default layouts can be removed by clicking the 'Set as Default' button again when the current default layout is selected. Please note that existing saved grid layouts will display the Filter Row as hidden by default. |
