Accounts Payable - Recurring Invoice Register

Function

The Recurring Invoice Register is used to generate recurring invoices through the specified invoice date. After printing the register, verify the information and make corrections before updating. The update causes a copy of each recurring invoice to be transferred to the standard invoice entry file. There they are modified or deleted like any other invoice before printing and updating the Invoice Register.
