Accounts Payable Transaction Hierarchy
This hierarchy is a summary of common general ledger (GL) transactions you post from within the
Accounts Payable (AP) module.
This hierarchy assumes your company uses an unmodified version of the Standard
posting rules the Kinetic application delivers. If you use the Extended posting rules, or if
you need information on an AP transaction that this hierarchy does not list, refer to GL
Transaction Type Maintenance to review the posting rule operation details.
