Printing T5 - Preparation

Where In Accounts Payable Do I Print From?

You can print T5s from any folder of Accounts Payable that you can see accounts/recipients on.

If you activate Accounts Payable you have access to all accounts/recipients and can print any or all T5s from there.


If you activate a sub-folder you can print T5s for accounts/recipients of that sub-folder.

Setting the T5 Year

On whatever accounts payable folder you decide to print from you must set the T5 Reporting Year.

  1. Use the window tabs to select Accounts + T5 Information.
  2. Setup (<F11>) the amount column(s) to dates for the appropriate year.

Print>T5s will take the amount to print from the leftmost amount column. The T5 Information view is initially configured with three columns: financial debits, financial credits, and financial balance. Payments to vendors are debits (reducing the vendor balance) and display negative. Print T5s will use the absolute value for comparison to the "Minimum Amount", and for printing. The financial credits and financial balance columns are just there for a visual "sanity check", and can be deleted.
