  1. Open the appropriate general ledger batch record from the Batches service to begin the export process.
    • All of the standard header information including name, general ledger batch type, who started the general ledger batch, who approved the general ledger batch, date started, effective date, and currency type is displayed on this record.
    • Each of the records included in the general ledger batch is displayed in the list on the Orders tab if it is a general ledger batch of orders, on the Payments tab if it is a general ledger batch of payment records, or on the Scheduled Transactions tab if it is a general ledger batch of scheduled transaction records.
       
  2. Verify the GL account information on the GL Entries tab. This tab displays the general ledger account information, including a description and a list of the Debit and Credit account entries.

  3. Export the general ledger batch into a file that can be used by an external GL accounting system by clicking the Export Batch button (circled in the figure above).
  4. In the Effective Date field, modify the Effective Date for the batch, if necessary. Click OK to continue.
  5. In the File Name field, update the default name, if desired.

    The default name is Aptify Batch - <yyyymmdd>. For example, a batch record exported on September 7th, 2016 would have a default name of Aptify Batch - 20160907. If you use the default name, and there already is an export from the same day on your computer, the name will have a number appended at the end.



  6. In the File Type field, select the format of the batch export file. The Batch Export save dialog can save a batch file in two formats: comma separated value (CSV) or tab-delimited. A value of *.csv sets the default to the CSV type. A value of *.txt sets the default to the tab-delimited type.

    Note Concerning Default Export Type

    In the Save As dialog, the default file type is tab delimiter (.txt). However, an administrator can modify this default value by modifying the configurable attribute found on the Batch entity. Below is a description of the attribute:

    DefaultExportType: The Batch Export save dialog can save a batch file in two formats: comma separated value (CSV) or tab-delimited. While you can save a particular file in either format, this attribute determines which format is selected by default. A value of CSV sets the default to the CSV type. A value of TXT sets the default to the tab-delimited type.  


  7. Select the Include Accounting Period Data in Export File option if you want to include a batch's Accounting Period ID and the Accounting Period Name.
    • If this option is not selected, the accounting period is not included.

      By default, the Include Accounting Period Data in Export File option is cleared. If you want to have this option selected by default, an administrator can set the Batches entity's IncludeAccountingPeriod entity attribute from 0 to 1



  8. Select OK to export the file to the default download folder on your computer.
