Process By
These processing options specify the categories by which the system groups payments.
- 1. Company
Enter 1 to create separate payments based on company.
- 2. Due Date
Enter 1 to create separate payments based on due date.
If you set the Summarized Pay Item processing option on the Summarize tab to 1 to summarize payments, you set this processing option to 1 also because you might have different due dates for the lines on a voucher.
- 3. Payee
Use this processing option to specify whether to create payments based on payee, regardless of the supplier. Values are:
Blank: No
1: Yes
For example, the following table illustrates one possible voucher, supplier, and payee combination:
Voucher 1, Supplier 1001, Payee 1001
Voucher 2, Supplier 1001, Payee 1002
Voucher 3, Supplier 1001, Payee 1002
Voucher 4, Supplier 1002, Payee 1002
Voucher 5, Supplier 1003, Payee 1001
If you leave the Payee processing option blank, the system generates four payments, based on the payee, then supplier:
Payee 1001: Supplier 1001, Voucher 1
Payee 1001: Supplier 1003, Voucher 5
Payee 1002: Supplier 1001, Vouchers 2 and 3
Payee 1002: Supplier 1002, Voucher 4
If you set the Payee processing option to 1, you have two payments based only on the payee:
Payee 1001: Supplier 1001, Voucher 1, and Supplier 1003, Voucher 5
Payee 1002: Supplier 1001, Vouchers 2 and 3, and Supplier 1002, Voucher 4
- 4. Business Unit
Enter 1 to create separate payment control groups by business unit.
