Supervisor status is an optional feature that provides an additional level of review before a batch is run through gift processing.
To use the supervisor status feature:
Set system option 9 to 'Y'.
After completing entry for a batch, the gift entry operator should leave the batch status as 'Open', but set the supervisor status to a code that will indicate to the supervisor that the batch is ready for their review.
Once the supervisor has determined that the batch is ready to be processed, the supervisor can set the batch status to 'Closed' and change any values on the Batch Control window, but NOT the ledger entries. All of the usual checks will be performed when the close is attempted and the close will not be permitted if any errors are encountered.
Note: Although system option 9 may be turned on, it is the supervisor flag in the user row that enables the gift entry supervisor to access the batches that normally they would be prevented from updating.
