Edit Suspended Payments

Menu Access:
 Character: EDI 4 10
 GUI: Not yet implemented

Use this function to maintain suspended payments that are loaded into to the system using the Receive EDI Data function. It can also be used for the creation of new suspended payment records, as well as the deletion of inactive suspended payment records.

You will be prompted for a payment receipt number. This is a number assigned to each suspended payment record created. You can create a new suspended payment, or copy from an existing record. Use the |UP/DOWN ARROW| keys to browse the available payment receipt numbers that are on file.

After choosing the payment receipt number you want to work with, you will be asked for information about the suspended payment, such as the customer number, document (check) number, transaction code, and banking information. See the field descriptions section below for more details.

After entering basic information about the suspended payment, you will then be prompted for the reference (invoice) numbers used on this payment. You can create a new reference number for this payment receipt number, or copy from an existing record. Use the |UP/DOWN ARROW| keys to browse the available reference numbers on file for the payment receipt number chosen.

Once you have selected the reference number to work with, you will then be able to edit the entity codes, amounts, G/L codes and job numbers for each distribution line used when paying off invoices. See the field descriptions section below for more details.
