Bank Assignment
In payment entry, if the "Bank" field has not been assigned, the "Bank allocation" phase is submitted. Three possibilities are proposed at this stage:
- Manually select in payment entry the Bank on which all the treasury operations will be posted (see the Payment entry documentation).
- Distribute a payment amount by allocation of a preset banking pool, or manually, via the bank allocation function (see the Bank allocation documentation)
- Manually assign a bank via the Bank assignment process (explained here below).
The mentioned bank must necessarily be associated with the company for which the process is launched.
The bank assignment process is also used to modify the allocation of a payment to another bank.
Prerequisite
Refer to documentation Implementation
Screen management
Entry screen
The bank assignment process is sub-divided into two phases: The first phase sonsists in selecting a group of payments ("Entry" step). These selected payments appear then in a second grid where the bank assignment (and/or assignment modification) is possible individually.
Payment selection criteria
Entry date
The process can be limited to the payments whose creation date (or last modification date) is no later than a given date.
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.
Entry batch
It is possible to limit the process to a specific payment entry batch. If the selection "All entry batches" is disabled and no batch no. is mentioned, the allocation will only concern those payments that are not associated with any entry batch.
User
The selection can take place at user level. Only those payments that are recorded by the specified user are taken into account.
Currency group/Currency
It is possible to perform a selection for a currency group or a particular transaction currency. Only those payments entered in the selected currency(ies) are processed.
Already allocated payments
If the bank allocation of certain payments need to be modified, it is possible to include the already allocated payments in the selection.
Bank
It is also possible to decide te select those payments that are already allocated to a single bank in particular.
Bank allocation on the selected payments
A second grid follows the selection of the payments. This table contains all the payments at the "Entry" or "Draft management posting" steps meeting the previously defined selection criteria.
The only field accessible for entry in this grid is the "Bank" field. The other columns make it possible to know which payment is processed.
It is then possible to individually allocate a bank to each payment (or to part of the payment).
