If invoice and payment documents are entered without settlement, they will remain in the system as open documents. An open invoice and an open payment that match each other will have no impact on the balance of the debtor, so settlement can take place later if more convenient. The access to this routine is simple but different, since the payment entry has already been done in another journal.
- Select the Enter financial transactions menu item.
- On Financial system transaction entry, complete the applicable fields and click OK. For further instructions and field descriptions, see Open a new batch.
- You remain on the same panel, which is now updated, showing only the routines that are valid for the selected voucher type. Select the A/R settlements routine and click OK.
- On the Work with A/R settlements, Settlements overview, click Add.
- You access Create settlement. Enter either a document type and number if you know which document is to be the main document in the settlement, or click Selection to pre-select a debtor number (with or without a transaction currency code) to get a listing of valid documents to choose from. Select the main document.
- Follow steps 4-5 in Enter an A/R payment with selection of documents to settle. Exit the routine.
