Payment Forecast Report - Purpose
PO700E
The Payment Forecast Report program (PO700E) prints the Payment Forecast reports. The report may be requested in summary or detail formats. The summary format (PO700A) shows engagement amounts by vendor. The detail format (PO700B) shows engagement amounts by purchase order and vendor.
The report requests are retrieved from the Forecast Report Request file (PO310GP). Purchase Order release amounts are then calculated and classified in one of the user-defined intervals on the report request using the dock date of the release and the credit terms of the order. A detail line is printed after all the releases have been processed for the purchase order. A summary line is printed after all the purchase orders have been processed for the vendor. The reports are printed at the output queue specified on the reports request record. Should this be blank the output queue defaults to QPRINT.
