  3. Choose All Owners or Single Owner.  If you choose Single Owner, you must click the Find Owner button and select an owner or type an owner number in the text box.
  4. Choose "New activity since last statement."  The statement date defaults to the current system date.  Based on the setting of the "Always process owner statements on calendar month only" switch on the Owner Configuration page, the default date will either be the last day of the last month (YES) or the current system date (NO).
  5. Check the appropriate switches to include statements with no activity or not.
  6. Choose a Statement Report to print, if one isn't already specified.  Click the Browse button to find the correct report.
  7. Select the Print tab.

  10. Once corrections have been made, select the Close tab.  Check the appropriate switches to generate and print checks to the owners for any credit balance. If you do not check "Generate check for any credit balance", the statement shows that the credit balance is "held on account". If checks are printed in RDP, make sure the "Print check from RDP" option is selected.

    When a balance forward statement is closed, the system generates a statement marker transaction, defining the end of one statement and the beginning of the next. Statement markers appear as a B7D@ transaction code whenever owner transaction are viewed. Without closing the statement, the next owner statement will include all activity instead of just new activity. Even if no corrections were made to the first statement, close the statement.
  11. Once statements have been closed, print the final copy of the statements to send to the owners. Choose Previous Statement.
  12. Choose a statement date to reprint. If "Single Owner" is chosen, the drop-down box offers the dates of all previous statements for that owner master. If "All Owners" is chosen, the statement date can be chosen from the calendar drop-down.
