Use this function to automatically generate bank remittances for the various payment transactions defined with the posting phase (see the documentation for Payment transactions).

The generation of bank remittances does not constitute in itself a payment posting phase. It makes it possible to generate a remittance that can be:

  • Printed to physically accompany a bank deposit
  • Associated with a bank file for transmission to the bank


Creating a remittance is mandatory if the payment transaction authorizes an intermediate posting phase.

Selection criteria of the payments to be recorded on the remittance

Company & Site

The remittance is single-company or single-site, depending on the parameters of the sequence number counter.

  • if no particular company is selected, there is at least one remittance per company.
  • if the site is not specified, the payments for all the sites of the same company are recorded on the same remittance
     (provided this is compatible with other criteria).

It is thus possible to reduce the selection of the payments to be processed in bank remittance generation to one company and one site.

If a company is specified, but not the site, it is necessary to enter the 'Grouping site' field that is used as the header site on the remittance.

Payment transaction

The remittance is payment single-type. Thus, if no payment transaction has been specified, a remittance is generated by transaction.

It is possible to reduce the selection of those payments to be placed on a remittance to one payment transaction on which they are recorded.

Bank

It is the bank to which the bank remittance is sent. The remittance is thus single-bank.

It is possible to reduce the selection of those payments to be placed on a remittance to one allocated bank.

The company, payment transaction and bank are the minimum criteria to regroup the open items on the same remittance.

Other criteria can limit the selection of the payments to be processed: the entry batch number, the user, the currency, an open item due date range and their amount.

Generation options of the bank remittances

Grouping/reference

This payment grouping based on a common reference is only used for payment transactions where the 'Remittance reference' field has been set up in entry mode (see Payment transactions documentation).

Remittance type

The 'Remittance type' field is forced to 'Cash receipt' if all the payment transactions selected and concerned by the bank remittances are checks (Printing code=CHE or CHR). The bank remittances are thus generated by check type with the deposit type assigned to 'Cash receipt'.

This field cannot be entered and is left empty if all the payment transactions selected and concerned by the bank remittances are set up with entry of the remittance type. The remittances are then generated by remittance type.

Except for these two particular cases, the field must be specified because the other payment transactions (set up without entry of the remittance type) are generated in common bank remittances, where the assigned remittance type is applied to the entered remittance type.

Batch task

This function can be run in batch mode, but no dedicated standard task is delivered to run it.
