For Sage 500 version 2016, AP Voucher comment is no longer showing on reports of GL Activity and we'd like to get that feature back.

Posted By

Both the GL Transaction Report and GL Activity Reports used to show the comment from the AP Voucher header in the "Posting Comment" field, along with the Invoice # and Vendor ID (when "Include Posting Comments" was checked in Options).  After we upgraded to 2016, the Posting Comment field now shows the Invoice #, Vendor ID, and the name of the GL Account.  Since the report is arranged by GL Account, this is not information we need or want in the Posting Comment field.

Does anyone know of a setting that we can change or a fix that's available to get that AP Voucher comment back in our reports?

    When you get the chance please click on AP Options/Customize tab/Batches button and set Vouchers Posting Comment field to 'Std with Comment'. I just tested this in Sage 500 version 2016 and in GL Transaction Report am getting the invoice number, vendor ID, and header comment for AP account, and invoice number, vendor ID, and detail comment for the expense account.

    Thanks for the reply, but it doesn't quite do it for us. I checked and this was already how it was set up. To be clear, I'm looking to have the header comment show up here, when there is no detail line comment (to prevent the AP person from needing to type in a comment for each line). Does that require a different set up? What would be the effect if we chose "Tran Comment"?

    Tran Comment will include the transaction ID, the entity number, and the detail description found on the transaction being posted. And the detail description will be the comment from the header with AP account, and the comment from the detail line with the expense account.
