Supplier Bill of Exchange Payment

This chapter covers how to work with Supplier Bill of Exchange Payments. This process is used for manual selection of supplier invoices or use of a payment proposal to create a Bill of Exchange. A payment is created and a voucher is generated automatically to the hold table in IFS/ Accounting Rules. The debt from the invoices is "transferred" to the open Bill. The Bill itself is closed when it is later cashed, i.e. when we have received the payment confirmation from the payment institute.

Otherwise the payment will be posted directly to the used cash account when the check is printed.

External Supplier Payment on File

This chapter covers how to create supplier payments sent by electronic file from the company's various payment institutes. Each electronic file contains information, and matching options, on debit and credit transactions for a specific account and currency. The external loading is loaded into either an existing or a new mixed payment. The payment is then approved. The approval creates payment and voucher with postings. The standard version of IFS/Payment does not allow the loading of external interface. This logic must therefore be added to the system at the time of each supplier installation.
