Posting process in ISIS

 

ISIS has two different options to Post information into the General Ledger.

 

  1. Posting from traffic, is the process through which the Bills of Lading rates get posted, creating accounts receivable to the assigned billing parties in the rates and accounts payable, if the charge has been set up to do so. In cases like Drayage, freight Forwarder Advance or Inland Freight, the program can be set to create payables as well. This process saves a lot of time, as users do not have to enter manual invoices to reflect the charges of the B/L. To post a Bill of lading, go to the Post B/L option in the B/L entry screen or in the rating screen. Make sure to print the worksheet and verify, before you post. Also, double check the period, under which the amounts will be posted, the program defaults to the current period, but if you are making a correction, you might need to change the period. To post one bill of lading you can do so from the bill of lading entry screen or form the rating screen. Both of them have an option called Post B/L

To post a batch of Bills of lading, there is a job proof and job post under the traffic reports submenu. Make sure you select the right ports, B/L’s and the posting period.

 

  1. Posting from accounting. All documents that are entered from the accounting menu need also to be posted to reflect the amounts in the G/L. To post journal entries, manual accounts payable, manual accounts receivable and cash receipts, go to the corresponding option, under every sub-menu. A/P’s and A/R’s have an option in the toolbar to post. In most of the cases, ISIS has proof reports, which we recommend to run before posting, to verify that the amounts and the accounts are OK.

 

  1. In the case of A/P’s and A/R’s, if you are going to post in the current period, you can post by selecting the appropriate button from the toolbar. For a different period than the current one, or for multiple invoices, users have to go to the option in the submenu (Accounts Receivable or Accounts Payable) to post the documents.

 

 

  1. If a check needs to be printed from the Accounts Payable, there is an option that calls the posting\printing process. It is called Pay Invoice. This process will post the invoice, as well, if it had not been posted already
