Credit Card Charges

Purpose and when to use this record

Record a card purchase or credit, its vendor, statement-clearing state, amount, and transaction date.

At a glance

• Identify it by: Reference #, and Charge Date.

• Check its business context: Vendor, and Card Account.

• Why care: Dates, accounts, amounts, posting state, and period locks can change financial reports. Verify them against the source document before finalizing the record.

• Why care: Treat posted, processed, paid, reversed, and edit-locked states as controls—not ordinary descriptive fields. Confirm the source transaction before changing any state that the screen permits you to change.

Common mistakes and troubleshooting

• The record will not save: Recheck Vendor, Card Account, and Amount and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

• The record saved but is not available where expected: Recheck Transaction Type, Cleared, and Edit Locked, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.

• The values look right but the result is wrong: Open Vendor, and Card Account from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.
