The Lockbox Processing and Error Correction screen (LCK001) is an interactive screen that allows users to view a holding table of uploaded data and correct any errors. Based on the error message, consult the paperwork from the bank to perform the corrections. One example of an error is a missing order number and customer number. The member might not have returned the proper paperwork with the payment and, therefore, the order and customer number might be missing. In this case, look up the customer by name, find the relevant order, enter the order number on the lockbox correction screen. If there is no order and/or you are not sure to what order to apply the money, create an unapplied receipt for this payment. If the customer is not in the system, create a customer based on the name and address on the copy of the check.
Once the errors have been corrected, the user can then validate and post transactions individually or in groups.
Credit card numbers are treated as Presettled.

TMA Resources does not recommend unapplied receipts in general. Whenever possible, apply receipts to orders.
10. Once
changes have been made to a record(s), select the record(s) and click
Validate Transactions from
the task bar.
If the proper changes were made, the status of corrected records will change
to “Validated.” All transactions must be validated before they can be
posted.

This can also be done by re-running LCK100 in POST mode. Please note that
