A/P Manual Check Register (AP51)

The Manual Check Register (AP51) is used to print the Check Register for manually issued Checks, Drafts, Transfers and Adjustments that were posted through Enter Manual Checks & Adjustments (AP50). A GL Summary by posting date is also included in the report.

When the report is accepted:

  • The GL distributions are written to the GL Collector file.

  • Entries are written to the Outstanding Check file for Check reconciliation purposes.

  • If you are using the Bank Reconciliation feature, all manual checks bound to a Bank Code that is assigned to a bank reconciliation GL Account are replicated to the GL Transactions view in PointForce iTopia (PFiT). For more details on the Bank Reconciliation feature, see the Bank Reconciliation Overview topic.
