ON PO, ON SO, ON WO, ON WT quantities are not correct in Item Maintenance

Sort files are automatically maintained when records are added or deleted from the master files. Use the Rebuild Application Sort Files utility for the following reasons:

• The sort files are damaged, resulting in a missing record error (Error 11) or missing information in a report.
• Data files have been rebuilt or reinitialized.
• Balances must be recalculated to resolve a specific issue.

1. Expand Modules, Library Master, Utilities, Rebuild Sort Files. (For Sage MAS 90 version 3.71 and earlier, Expand Modules, Library Master, Repair, and double-click Rebuild Application Sort Files.)
2. Review the warning, and click OK.
3. From the Rebuild Sort Files window, select an application from the Module field, and a company code from the Company field.
4. Click Proceed, and select responses to the questions pertaining to certain modules (see below).
5. Close the Rebuild Sort Files window.

Accounts Payable

In response to the question, "Do you want to recalculate vendor balances in the Vendor masterfile?" click Yes to recalculate balance due in the Vendor Masterfile.

Accounts Receivable:

1. Select the Recalculate Aging in Customer Master check box to recalculate the dollar amounts of open invoices that belong in the aging fields (Current Balance, Over 30, Over 60, Over 90, Over 120) in each customer record in the Customer Masterfile. These aging fields display near the bottom of the Invoices tab in Customer Maintenance.
2. Select an aging date from the Aging Date field. This is the date that aging is calculated by. Aging recalculates by the invoice date or due date, per the Age Invoices By selection in Accounts Receivable Options. Age Invoices By selections include the following:
   • Include Paid Invoices. This determines whether paid invoices show in the aging.
   • Age Credit Memos. This determines if credit memos are to be included in the aging recalculation.
   • Exclude Future Transactions. This determines if future transactions beyond the aging date are to be included in the aging recalculation.
3. Select the Recalculate Open Order amount in Customer check box to recalculate the Open Order Amount in each customer record in the Customer Masterfile. Select this when the open order amount is incorrectly reported as being higher than the customer's credit limit, which prevents new sales orders from being entered.
