Navigation

From Accounts Payable (G04), enter 29

From Accounts Payable Setup (G0441), choose Automatic Payment Setup

From Automatic Payment Setup (G04411), choose Sequence Review

You must set up the order in which you want payments to print within a payment group. For example, you might want payments to print in descending order by amount so that the largest payment amounts print first.

The system uses the sequence ID that you set up to establish the printing order when you create payment groups. A sequence ID contains up to six data items from the fields in the A/P payments worktable.
