How To Control The AP Batch from PO

[ofern01]

As we all now, when you invoice from PO, the system does not allow the user to select a Batch Number. I have a Situation in which the users need to separate transactions to verify and post those completed. When users are working in AP and PO at the same time, the transactions are all joined in the same batch.
1. Is there a way to separate this transactions.
2. How can I have a Batch for PO Transactions and One for AP Transactions that are working at the same time.
Thanks....

1. No, the AP batch is created when you run IC day end and all PO invoices are dumped into one AP batch.
2. Don't understand the question, can you explain....

I do not Run Day End. We Process Costing as the transaction is posted. The Moment you create an Invoice in PO module and Post it, It's added to a Batch in AP. Then You have to Post the AP Batch.

That's the way it is designed.
Look at PO Setup, Options, Processing, Post AP Batches.

is there a way programatically to Reserve a batch or something like that.
Do you know what is the logic used to find a free batch?

No.
It looks for a PO generated batch that has an Open status.
