Setting Up Cash Collections

The system administrator sets up cash collections at the supplier SetID level. These can be overridden by the supplier administrator at the location and at the agreement level.

To set up cash collections, use the following components:

  • Define Supplier Notifications (EM_S_NOTIFY_SETID).

  • Review Agreement Details (EM_AGREEMENT).

  • Notifications (EM_LOCATION_NOTIFY).

This section discusses how to define cash collection notifications, specify cash collection notification parameters, and define supplier location notification parameters.
