Payments (Invoice Payments) Import Field Mapping Definition

The Payments (Invoice Payments) import workflow includes one mapping group:

Invoice Payment Mapping Group

Use the Invoice Payment mapping group to map information about payment records in OpenAir with information about payments applied to invoice transaction records in NetSuite. The mapping group supports filters.

For reference information and best practice guidelines, review the following topics:

  • References — Overview of record types in OpenAir and NetSuite with links to the relevant reference material for information about fields available for mapping.

  • Default and Custom Filters — Overview of default filters and how to modify the default behavior, and custom filters. Custom filters are supported for this mapping group.

  • Default Field Mappings — Overview of default field mapping definitions including notes and best practice guidelines where relevant. Information imported by default includes project name, associated customer, and start date. Filters are supported.

  • Additional Field Mappings — There are no specific guidelines for custom field mapping definitions in this mapping group.
