During pay cycle processing, PeopleSoft Payables communicates with the PeopleSoft Financial Gateway to process the specific payments marked for PeopleSoft Financial Gateway processing. However, you must first configure the pay cycle functionality to enable this process.

To enable pay cycles for PeopleSoft Financial Gateway functionality, you:

  1. Access the Source Registration page in the PeopleSoft Financial Gateway functionality.

  2. Enter Payables (AP) as source system, and verify that the correct setup appears (such as dispatch status and last payment number). If you want the PeopleSoft Financial Gateway functionality to handle expense payments, you must also verify the Expense (EX) source system.

  3. Access the External Bank Account page, and define the Settle By and Layout code for a bank account's electronic payment method.

  4. (Optional) Set up the EFT supplier with the correct default EFT layout.

  5. Enter a voucher with an EFT scheduled payment, and ensure that the PeopleSoft Financial Gateway functionality settles the scheduled payment.

  6. (Optional) On the Payment Selection Criteria page, specify an user ID for payment error notification.

    A valid email address is required in the User Preferences - PayCycle page.

  7. Run the Pay Cycle process to verify that the configuration works properly.

Use the Mapping Detail page (PYCYCL_MAP_DTL ) to specify the mapping of the fields in the staging table to the corresponding fields in the Payables PS_PYCYCL_DATA table.
