Releasing a Receivable
Process
This job aid describes the actions required to Release (write off) a Receivable. These actions can be used for both receivables in
collections (CL) and past due receivables not in collection (RE). Be certain that you select the correct transaction type as your
source transaction when you begin the process. Since the Write-off (WO or WO1) and Cash Receipts (CR) transactions are created
using the Copy Forward function, the source transaction must be correct.
