Selection screen of the payments to be processed

The payment selection is carried out based on a set of criteria defining the payment.

Company

The payments pending acceptance for all companies can be submitted. It is also possible to limit the operation to the payments of one company only (uncheck the option All companies).

Site

A selection can be performed on a site: Only the payments recorded on this site are submitted.

Payment transaction

Since all the payments are organized and sorted by payment transaction, it is possible to limit the selection of the payments to be processed to a single payment transaction.

Control account/BP

It is possible to limit the selection to a control account, even to a specific BP specified in the appropriate field. If no control account/BP is mentioned while the All collective accounts and All BPs selections are deactivated, the process will apply to general accounts.

Currency group/Currency

It is possible to perform a selection for a currency group or a particular transaction currency. Only the payments recorded in the selected currency(ies) are displayed.

Due date

The selection can be defined for a limit due date.

Amount

It is possible to limit the selection to payments whose amount does not exceed a specific value.

Screen of the payments to be processed

All the payments that meet the defined criteria are displayed in this screen.

It is recommended to check that only the requested payments are selected. Otherwise, it is possible to delete lines for the irrelevant payments, or to add lines.

The Save button at the bottom of the page is used to validate the acceptance return for the payments displayed in the table.
