Posting Screen

The Posting screen is designed to show outstanding errors that need to be resolved from automated claim processing. This screen by default will show deposit claims that the system failed to process due to claim or procedure errors. The filters can be changed if desired to find any payment posted from a deposit. Each line is a Posting, or Deposit Claim -- an instance of a claim being attached to a deposit and posted. Double clicking any line will open the Deposit Claim Details screen for the deposit claim.
