Foreign Country Payment not selected - Domestic Payments


Configuration

    1. Enter the Supplier's bank account number in the Bank Account or Bank Account 2 field. If the Supplier's bank account is held at the bank selected as the Payment File Format, enter the Supplier's bank account number in the Bank Account 2 field. Otherwise, enter it in the Bank Account field. For example, if the Payment File Format is Sweden - Nordea and the Supplier's bank account is held at the Nordea bank, use the Bank Account 2 field. If it is held at a different bank, use the Bank Account field. If the Payment File Format is Sweden - Swedbank and the Supplier's bank account is held at Swedbank, use the Bank Account 2 field. and so on.

    2. If you enter a Reference for a Supplier, it will be copied to each Purchase Invoice and exported from there.

  2. In the Payment Modes setting, enter your bank account number in the Bank A/C No. field in each Payment Mode.
Purchase Invoices
  1. Specify a Reference or a Supp. Inv. No. in each Purchase Invoice.
Payments
  1. Information will be exported in different formats depending on whether the Supplier's bank account is held at the bank selected as the Payment File Format. This is determined by checking whether the To Bank A/C in a Payment row is the same as the Bank Account (account at a different bank) or the Bank Account 2 (account at the same bank) in the Contact record for the Supplier. If the To Bank A/C in a row does not match either of the Bank Accounts in the Contact record, the row will not be exported correctly. Therefore, you should not change the To Bank A/C in any Payment row.
Exporting
  1. For a Payment row to be exported, the To Bank A/C must not be blank.

  2. The Invoice No. in a Payment row must refer to a valid Purchase Invoice (i.e. Prepayments and On Account Payments will not exported).

  3. Select Pay on Due Date in the 'Specify Banking File' window if appropriate. Selecting this option will cause the later of the Payment Date and the Due Date of the Purchase Invoice being paid to be exported for each Payment. Otherwise, the Payment Date of each Payment will be exported.

  4. If you select the Unexported Only option in the 'Specify Banking File' window, Payments in the range that have not been marked as Ordered and those that have been marked as Ordered will be exported. Payments that have been marked as OK will not be exported. After the export process, any unordered Payments in the range will be marked as Ordered automatically. If you need to export a Payment that has been marked as OK, select the All option in the 'Specify Banking File' window but be careful when specifying the range of Payments to be exported as any Payments in the range that have previously been exported will be exported again. Payments and individual Payment rows that have been invalidated will never be exported.
