A data list recording the result of postings successfully completed and those not completed for a payment card file.

Generating accounting documents takes place from a payment card file in a program that you should normally start as batch processing, considering the data quantity to be processed. The log file is created while the program runs.

The log file has several functions:

• It gives information about the accounting document generated from a card transaction
• It saves the error message if no accounting document could be generated
• It guarantees that exactly one accounting document is generated from a card transaction

You get information about the result of the attempted posting in the message column of the log file. The document number of the accounting document is displayed for a successful posting. For an unsuccessful posting, the error message is displayed that has prevented generating the accounting document. The error message gives a note on analyzing and solving the error.

You can select data records and trigger the posting again. If you have only selected one data record, the posting can executed visibly in the foreground.
