Who: AMEX (American Express Credit Card)
What: Super Vendor that handles our firm paid travel with Lawyers Travel
Where: Generic Importer Template AP Configuration and the task EXINV3 (Customized). We use Bruce’s AP Import program that converts the vendors EDI files into the format required to import into Aderant. The executable for Bruce’s program located here \\ladc-lawtime\LDBCustm\Shortcuts\AP and is the AP Import Expert Batch icon. We’ll need an icon pointed to the Expert Test database.
When: Monthly
Why: We have a large volume of invoices that would take longer to manually input. Bruce’s program takes the Excel document attached and formats it into the file necessary to load through Generic Importer. There is a lengthy process of reconciling the two spreadsheets together to address client billable expenses versus firm charges and credits.
