Discard Blank Transaction Batches During AP Close

Discard Blank Transaction Batches During AP Close

This enhancement ensures that during the Accounting Period (AP) Close process in Zenople, any transaction batches that are empty (contain no transactions) are automatically discarded by the system. This prevents empty or invalid batches from affecting the AP Close process, improves data integrity, and ensures that only valid batches are referenced in reports and batch listings.

1. Automatic Discard of Blank Batches

• During the AP Close process, the system will automatically identify and discard any transaction batch that contains zero transactions.
• The discard operation is performed as part of the AP Close workflow and does not require manual intervention.

2. Exclusion from Listings and Reports

• Discarded (blank) batches will not appear in any batch listings or reports generated during or after the AP Close process.
• Only batches with at least one transaction will be included in all relevant AP Close outputs and audit trails.

3. Data Handling & Audit

• The process ensures that no valid transaction data is lost—only batches with zero transactions are affected.

4. Error Prevention

• This discard mechanism helps prevent AP Close errors or warnings caused by the presence of empty or invalid batches.
