The following describes how to enter an A/R payment and settle it with a document identified by its document type and number. You will directly settle the payment using the settlement option *DOC_TYPNO.
Prerequisites
Define a voucher type for which the Enter A/R payments routine is valid. Define a payment document type with a pre-defined pseudo account as contra account.
- Follow steps 1-5 in Enter a payment and settle it manually with the following exception on the A/R payment panel:
- Settlement option
- Enter *DOC_TYPNO.
- You access Standard settlement info entry. Complete the following fields:
- Doc type to settle
- Enter the document type which together with the document number identifies the document (invoice) to be settled with the payment.
- Doc no to settle
- Enter the document number which together with the document type identifies the document (invoice) to be settled with the payment.
- You re-access the A/R payment panel. Click Back to access Work with transactions in voucher and then click Back again to access Work with vouchers in batch. Select the batch you just created and click Update.
- You access the A/R payment panel again. Click Back to access Work with vouchers in batch and click Back again to access Work with open batches. Select the batch you just created and click Update.
- You access Work with batches, Update. Click OK to close the batch and create the journal. Exit the routine.
If the amount for the document entered exceeds the payment amount, the document will be partly settled. Should the document be overpaid, then you access the A/R settlement workbench for you to maintain the remaining payment amount. Click OK.
Tip: If you would like the overpaid amount to be automatically handled and let the system partially settle the payment, this can be defined for the applied settlement option. If Auto-balance method for the settlement option *DOC_TYPNO is blank in Work with settlement options, then the overpaid amount is automatically put on account. If the code 01 is entered you switch off the setting on account function and the overpaid settlement will be identified as erroneous and the A/R settlement workbench is displayed to maintain the remaining payment amount.
