Use these steps to test the enhancement:

Note: The .csv and Infor Treasury payment output files have 20 new fields added at the end of the file. Please review the data mapping of these files to ensure the payment close process continues to function smoothly

Twenty new bank code fields have been added to a new business class called Vendor Bank. These twenty new bank codes can be added to a vendor or vendor location record and will flow to the csv and Infor Treasury payment output file. The payment output file will use the vendor location bank codes if they are setup and the payment is using that location as a remit to code. If the payment doesn’t have a remit to code or if the bank codes aren’t setup at the remit to code level then the payment output file will use the vendor bank codes. Since these twenty new bank code fields are generic, label fields have been added to Vendor Group for users to define the bank codes needed. The Payables Vendor Specialist role will have access to the bank code maintenance.

  1. To test, navigate to Vendor Group and define some vendor bank labels.
  2. Navigate to a vendor for that vendor group and in the Banking tab click on the Bank Codes button and populate some of the codes.
  3. Choose a location for the vendor and populate some bank codes in the Banking tab.
  4. Create and release an invoice for the vendor using a cash payment format set to CSV File payment format.
  5. Create and release another invoice for the vendor using the same cash payment format but adding a Remit To Code of the location above.
  6. Complete a payment cycle and verify the csv payment output detail file for the first invoice has the vendor bank codes populated and the second invoice has the vendor location bank codes populated.
  7. Perform the same test, but this time use a cash payment format set to Infor Treasury File payment format and verify the text output file has the correct bank codes populated. Also verify the new vendor/vendor location bank codes can be created and maintained via the mobile application.

Enhance cash requirements parameters to allow the pay through date to be before the payment date.

Program/business class/process affected:

  2. Verify the selection process does not include any payments where the due date is after the pay through date.
  3. Reset the parameters and populate the ‘Comments’ field.
  4. Select and schedule the payments and verify the selected vendor(s) have a comment populated from the payment cycle.
