In this blog post, we will discuss about another feature of Sage 300 ERP ‘Allow Adjustment in Payment batches’. In A/P Options setting, there is a check box  ‘Allow Adjustment in Payment batches’ under the ‘Transactions’ tab [Refer screenshot below].
New stuff: Allow editing of external batches

With this option checked, you can enter adjustments in Accounts Payable payment batches during payment entry, rather than having to enter them separately in the Adjustment Entry screen.
This option may be useful when the amount of a check you are entering to pay an invoice differs slightly from the invoice total. In this case, you can enter the difference amount by making an adjustment just by clicking on the Adjust button on the payment screen rather than doing it separately from the adjustment screen [Refer below screen shot].

With this option unchecked, the Adjust button may not be visible to the user [Refer Below screen Shots].


Thus, this option may be useful to create new adjustment batches directly from A/P Payment Entry Screen.
