The Split Statement screen allows the user to break up a payment statement into separate groups of records identified by a given description. A batch, for example, can be separated into groups of similar items for accounting purposes, such as splitting charges owed to a van line (AP) from the payment received from a van line (AR), and then assigned to multiple workers to process a single batch concurrently.
A user can only split a batch with a status of Downloaded, Manual, or Open.
The Split Statement screen is available through the Split function in Batch Management.
