SmartPost
Analytical Accounting
SmartPost require a few manual setups to be completed for AA to work. If AA is installed these steps need to be followed for each batch series and batch source that SmartPost will post regardless of whether you want to print and email the AA reports or not.
On the SmartPost Options window we have added a default AA report timeout.
When SmartPost is posting a batch with an AA report, it will wait for the report to print in the specified folder as setup below. SmartPost will wait for this report to be printed and continue when it has waited longer than the time specified. (If the time is set to 0, SmartPost will wait for a default time of 5 min)
Please Note: When you have Post through General Ledger setup in Great Plains you will need to follow the steps in the Financial section on General Entry.
