Shut Off Post

Use the Shut Off Post routine to update the various files with the customers' shut off charges. The post will update the customers, transaction codes, customer history and the General Ledger Journal files. At the end of the Shut Off Post routine, a Shut Off Post summary prints.

Important:

Before running the Shut Off Post routine, make sure that you have printed the Shut Off Edit Transaction Journal and the customer Shut Off statements, if applicable.
After the post finishes, review and maintain the Shut Off Post Summary for a complete audit trail.
For more information about the timing and sequence of the shut off steps, see Shut Off Procedures.
