Payment Advices (tfcmg1509m000)

If you select invoices for payments, all the invoices are selected for the batch. These can include invoices with a Trade Note kind of payment method and/or invoices to which payment agreements apply.

If you use payment agreements and payment agreements exist for at least one of the payments in a payment batch, you must apply the payment agreements before you can process the payment batch. From the appropriate menu, select Apply Payment Agreement to start the Apply Payment Agreement (tfcmg1230m000) session. If necessary, LN splits the batch according to the composing criteria for payment agreements.

Payment advice lines for trade notes must be processed separately. Therefore, from the appropriate menu, select Split Advice to split the batch. The advice lines with non-trade note payment methods are retained in the current batch and LN creates a new batch for the advice lines that have a Trade Note kind of payment method.

If you select the Payment Batch Approval check box in the CMG Parameters (tfcmg0100s000) session, an authorized user must approve the batch before the batch can be processed.

If the Approved field is set to No, the batch is not approved.

To approve the batch, from the appropriate menu, select Approve. You cannot make changes to an approved batch. If you must make changes, you must first unapprove the batch.

The super user and the authorized user who approved the batch can unapprove the batch. If you unapprove the batch, LN sets the status to Selected.

In the Payment Authorizations (tfcmg1100m000) session, you can authorize users to approve payment batches.
