Status Screen Overview 

The Status screen displays adjustment documents that have been entered and saved in the application. You can search for and open documents to finish the adjustment transaction process. You can also search for and open any Templates you have saved.

The current day's Batch number is also displayed (transactions released that day will have that batch number). The batch numbers are automatically incremented from 001 to 899.

There are two parts of the Status screen:

•  A search criteria area in which you can select or enter information and then click Find to find specific adjustment documents.
• A list of adjustment documents sorted by Document #.
