Paying The Service Provider - Technical Implementation

The following illustration shows the logical steps involved with increasing how much we owe a We Bill For Them service provider.

The following points explain the steps:

• When a financial transaction (FT) is frozen, the system executes the FT Freeze algorithms defined on the SA(s) SA type.
• If you've set up the system properly (i.e., you've put the appropriate FT Freeze algorithm on the sub SA's SA type), one of these algorithms will determine if there is a WBFT service provider associated with the sub SA. If so, it will insert a row on the FT Process table.
• Rows on the FT process table are used as "triggers" for batch processes. In this case, the batch process that is triggered is the one that looks at new FT's and determines if a related "payable" adjustment should be created for the We Bill For Them service provider. This batch process uses the service provider's Payment Relationship and Pay Service Provider algorithm to determine when and how to create these "payable" adjustments.
