Manual remittance creation

Use this function to manually group payments linked to the same transaction, bank, and company in a single remittance or bank file. You can also inquire and modify existing, automatically generated, or imported remittances.

The deposit slips go through several stages based on the payment transaction setup.

Note: A remittance is a document provided to a bank, in file or paper format, for a cash settlement such as a check payment, electronic file, credit transfers by EDI or bill of exchange issued on collection/discount.

If one or more payments linked to the same transaction are not approved, the Approval status is Partially approved. You can approve payments individually in the Payments grid or select Approve all. You cannot create a bank file if any payments requiring approval are not approved. In this case, you have the option to approve these transactions as needed or select Remove unapproved payments so you can create the bank file.

Remember, if you make a change to any approved payment, the status reverts to unapproved and the Approval status also reverts.

Remittance groups

To simplify the payment process and have fewer bank files, you can group remittances provided they have the same company, entry type, and bank account. The bank file definition linked to the entry type must have the Allow remittance grouping check box selected.

Click Group remittances to select eligible remittances. After you create the bank file, you can no longer modify the group.
