Many AMS360 centers contain a Register tab that allows you to review and take action on certain types of accounting transactions involving the open entity (bank, broker, company, employee, customer or vendor).

The Action Button appearing in the register view next to a transaction, indicates that action is available for the transaction.

If the button does not appear, the action is not available.

Receipts are displayed: In the Bank register for the bank to which they are deposited. In the center entity's register (Customer, Broker, Employee, Company, Vendor) where the receipt was distributed. Other GL Accounts distributions are not displayed in center registers.
Checks	Checks are displayed as negative amounts in all center registers except the Customer Center. There, they are displayed as positive amounts, if the transaction increases (debit) the customer receivable, or negative amounts if the transaction decreases (credit) the customer receivable. Checks are displayed: In the Bank register for the bank on which the check was drawn. In the center entity's register (Customer, Broker, Employee, Company, Vendor) where the check was distributed.

In the Customer center register, the customer's portion of the journal entry is reflected as a positive number when it increases (debit) the customer account, and as a negative number when it decreases (credit) the customer's account.
