AR_FLD_REF_TBL

Define new payment reference qualifiers that you will use to identify payment reference information and items when building worksheets.

To set up reference qualifiers, use the Reference Qualifier component (AR_FLD_REF_TBL).

Payment remittance information can contain a variety of reference numbers, such as:

  • Purchase order numbers.

  • Item IDs.

  • Bill of lading numbers.

  • Statement IDs.

  • (NLD) Acceptgiro payment reference numbers.

  • Public voucher numbers.

When you enter a payment electronically or online, you must supply the meaning of the reference information. Reference qualifiers are codes that you establish for this purpose.

Also use reference qualifier codes to identify the types of references to use when building a payment, transfer, maintenance, or draft worksheet. For example, if you select a reference qualifier code for a purchase order, the system uses purchase order numbers for the reference information and builds a worksheet with the items for which the purchase order numbers match the ones that you specified in your selection criteria. You assign the default reference qualifier code at the business-unit level.

Use the Reference Qualifier page (AR_FLD_REF_TBL) to define new payment reference qualifiers that you will use to identify payment reference information and items when building worksheets.
