Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Multicurrency Delinquency Notices

You use a version of the Credit Analysis Refresh program (R03B525) to print delinquency notices and generate records in the A/R Notification History (F03B20) and A/R Notification History Detail (F03B21) tables. The Credit Analysis Refresh program does not have any processing options that are specific to multicurrency for processing the delinquency notices. The system uses the currency code in the policy to determine the minimum amount required to generate a notice only; it does not use the currency code to determine the currency of the delinquency notice. The currency of the invoices on the delinquency notice are relevant only to the totals that print:

After you generate delinquency notices, you can review and approve or reject them, as necessary, before you print them and update the notification tables.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Multicurrency Delinquency Fees

You use a version of the Credit Analysis Refresh program (R03B525) to process delinquency fees and generate records in the A/R Fee Journal History (F03B22) and A/R Fee Journal History Detail (F03B23) tables. You specify the currency in which to generate the fee by setting a processing option in the Credit Analysis Refresh program. You can generate the fee in one of these currencies:

Regardless of the currency you select, the system generates one fee invoice record per currency code for each company. For example, if companies 00001 and 00003 are assigned a currency code for Canadian dollars (CAD), the system generates two fee invoices—one for company 00001 for CAD and one for company 00003 for CAD.

After you generate fees, you can review them online and accept or reject them as necessary before the system updates the information to the fee tables.

Fees

7. Currency of Fees

Specify the currency that the system uses to generate delinquency fee invoice records (document type RF). The system uses the most recent exchange rate from the (F0015 table to calculate the currency fee amount. Values are:

1: Company. Generate the fee in the currency that is assigned to the company record that appears on the invoice.

2: Customer. Generate the fee in the currency that is assigned to the CRCA (A/B Amount Codes) field of the customer record in the Customer Master by Line of Business table (F03012).

3: Invoice. Generate the fee in the currency that is assigned to the invoice at the time that the invoice was entered.

Note. Regardless of the value that you select, the system generates one fee invoice record per currency code for each company. For example, if companies 00001 and 00003 are assigned a currency code for Canadian dollars (CAD), the system generates two fee invoices—one for company 00001 for CAD and one for company 00003 for CAD.
