Selecting an open batch

If you enable batch control, a batch must be selected before you can process transactions. If you do not select a batch after starting an iMIS session, the Open Batches window opens automatically when you attempt to insert or edit a transaction, so that you can select an open batch. After you select an open batch or create a new batch, the batch remains selected until you select a different batch or exit iMIS.

You can only edit transactions for the currently selected batch. If you try to edit a transaction that was entered in another batch, iMIS prompts you to switch to the originating batch.

2. In the batch table, double-click a batch to select it.
3. (optional) Click View Batch.
