HOW TO MATCH OPEN ITEMS IN SAGE X3

By | January 6, 2024

Sage X3 uses an automatic matching process when posting open items which are applied to other open items. For example a payment made for some invoices is posted. During this posting process the details are loaded into a temporary table called MTCBATCH. Within this table the documents are matched together, open item entries are marked as closed, and the entries are then cleared from the MTCBATCH table.

Clearing this field is a manual process. The steps below shows us how to create a query tool to view the suspended matching items and how to clear them from the MTCBATCH table in sage X3.

The first thing to check is to make sure the accounting tasks are running. After you have verified that everything is running proceed with the next steps.

 Creating a Query tool to Identify the Incomplete Records.

  1. Go to Setup > Usage > Reports > Query Tool
  2. Create a new Query like below. Make sure to add the link expression formula: [F:DAE]DAE2 = [F:MTB]ACCNUM

3. Validate and run the query.

You can see two sets of matching that failed. We can go to manual matching to view the entries and complete the matching as needed.

   Completing the matching using manual matching

  1. Go to Financials > Matching > Manual matching
  2. Complete the matching process if needed.

   REMOVE THE ENTRIES FROM THE SUSPENDED MATCHING TABLE-

(A user with administrative permissions may be required for this process)

  1. Go to Development > Utilities > Maintenances > In lines
  2. Enter MTCBATCH in the ‘Table’ field
  3. Click ‘OK’
  4. Click on ‘Selection…’ from the list on the right
  5. Enter the Match number (MTCNUM) from the query tool results
  6. Click ‘OK’

Click the delete icon  from the list on the right

Click ‘Yes’

Click the scroll arrow to move to the next record with the same MTCNUM

Delete any remaining records

Go to Accounting Tasks and review the Matching field. Confirm that it says ‘0’.
