How to Generate Payment Suggestions

After you have set up electronic banking, you can start generating payment suggestions. You can do this in the payment journal.

To generate payment suggestions

  1. Choose the Search for Page or Report icon, enter Payment Journals, and then choose the related link.
  2. Select the appropriate journal batch, and then choose the Suggest Vendor Payments action.
  3. In the Suggest Vendor Payments EB page, on the Options FastTab, fill in the fields as described in the following table.

    Field Description
    Last Due Date Enter the last due date that can appear on the vendor ledger entries to be included in the batch job.
    Take Credit Memos Select to include outstanding credit memos for vendors. The credit memos will be subtracted from the amount due. When selecting credit memos, the due date is not used.
    Take Payment Discounts Select to include vendor ledger entries for which you can receive a payment discount.
    Payment Discount Date Enter the date that will be used to calculate a payment discount.
    Available Amount If there is a maximum amount available for payments, you can enter it here. The batch job will then create a payment suggestion based on this amount and the priority of vendors.
    Posting Date Enter the date that will appear as the posting date on the lines that the batch job inserts in the payment journal.
  4. On the Vendor FastTab, enter the filter criteria.

  5. Choose the OK button to start the batch job.

When the batch job is finished, the payment journal contains all vendor ledger entries that match the filters.
