Function keys
Add payment stat grp | If you want individual payment statistics for this supplier, state the supplier number as payment statistics group number. If the number does not exist in the Payment statistics file, use this function key to create the payment statistics group. |
- Contact person
- This field is only displayed in output mode. Displays the default contact person at the supplier’s site, e.g. the person responsible for account enquiries, if defined for the associated business partner role. Click Contacts to work with contacts and roles for the supplier.
- Payee number
- Enter the payee’s supplier number, if the payment for the supplier’s invoices is to be sent to someone other than the supplier himself. For A/P batch payments the system will automatically send the payment information to the entered payee number. The payee number must not be defined as sundry. For example: The supplier uses factoring, and thereby sells his receivables to a factoring company. The payment should then be sent to the factoring company, and not to the supplier.
- A/P group
- Mandatory entry. Enter a code from the A/R-A/P group table, indicating the A/P group to which the supplier should belong. The groups are used in the Pseudo account file when creating default supplier control accounts on which the automatic posting of payables are made.
- Payment stat. group
- Mandatory entry. Enter the payment statistics group to which the supplier should belong. If payment statistics should be kept for the supplier separately, use the supplier number that the system proposes as group number. Click Add payment stat grp to create the new statistics group. Otherwise you must enter a group that already exists in the Payment statistics file.
- Cost centre
- Only displayed if the Cost centre acc part field is activated in the G/L control file. Enter the cost centre, if you use cost centre accounting, and if transactions with this supplier are always posted to a specific cost centre.
The cost centre you enter here will be used as a default when you register transactions for this supplier on an account with cost centre substitution. If not entered here the cost centre will be defaulted from the user template for A/P invoices, if entered, or from the cost centre defined for the attestor in the Signature table, if entered.
The cost centre must exist in the cost centre part in the Account file, and it must be an active entry account. If you use cost centre accounting, but do not want to use a default, you will be prompted to enter a cost centre when registering each individual transaction. It will be used as a default when you register transactions for this supplier on an account with cost centre substitution.
- Attestor
- Mandatory entry. Enter a code from the Attestor table, indicating the person responsible for approving this supplier’s invoices for payment. The attestor indicates to whom a preliminary invoice should be sent for approval, or who has approved the invoice for payment when entering a final invoice. The attestor can also be used to select transactions on various lists and in enquiry programs.
- Terms of payment
- Mandatory entry. Enter a code from the Terms of payment table, indicating the terms of payment under which the supplier will be paid. The terms of payment also control instalment conditions.
- Extra cash days
- You can add a number of days to the cash discount days so that delayed payment will still entitle your company to the cash discount. If you enter, e.g. 2, a cash discount that states 10 days and 2% will allow you to pay the supplier within twelve days and still be entitled to the cash discount. The extra days are added at invoice entry.
- Payee address
- Enter the code for the payee address, if other than the address of the supplier. The code you enter must have YES in the Payee address field in the Address file.
- Payment priority
- This field is used to set internal priorities for payments to different suppliers in the Work with A/P payment proposal routine when your cash is limited. Suppliers with priority 1 are paid first, then 2 etc. The priority is valid only when the other terms that the suppliers offer are the same. If you do not complete the field, the system will automatically insert 5, i.e. a medium priority. If this function should not be used, leave the field blank, and all suppliers will have the same priority.
- Primary currency
- VAT
- Indicate if the supplier will charge VAT. This field will only be used if there is no purchase price defined for the item that you are ordering from this supplier. This value will be defaulted to the VAT Based field on the purchase order (on the Work with purchase orders, Order line, additional info 1 panel).
