Accounts Payable - AP25 - tracking release of batches

unknown

Hello,

Does anyone know of anywhere that keeps a log of the user who actually released a batch on AP25? I asked Infor and they said this info isn't tracked, but I want to see if anyone has an alternate answer.

We have our AP Manager (and their backups) as the only people who can release batches. AP Clerks can create a batch, but not release. SO - we'd wanted to look at particular invoices and determine who performed the final release, only to find this information doesn't seem to be tracked.

What have other companies done to get comfortable that this final release for payment doesn't seem to be tracked anywhere?

And finally - does anyone have an alternate method of invoice input/approval that captures both the AP Clerk (invoice input) and AP Manager (approver) usernames?

Thanks!
