Details
Use this routine to import, post, and report customer payments received
from outside sources. You can run this process on demand, as part
of End of Day processing (Generate
Daily Reports), or both.
The Import
Customer Payments process looks at the File Path Location field in
Receivable
Payment Source Settings to determine whether to extract the spreadsheet
from the local PC or NFS.
Payments posted via this routine are only included in the Balance
a Cash Drawer process if the Include Imported Payments on Cash Balancing
Report field is checked in Accounts
Receivable Control Settings.
In
order to use the customer payments import, even when importing non-revolving
payments, the Allow Payment Agreements in Revolving
Receivables Control Settings must be checked and at least one payment
source must be defined in Receivable
Payment Source Settings.
If your settings allow, you can also apply overpayments to charged off
balanced. See also: Overpay
Charged Off Accounts for more information.
