Automatic or uninterrupted payment process

During the uninterrupted payment process, LN automatically performs the following actions:

• Compose the payments, if you did not run the Process Payments (tfcmg1240m000) session
• Assign a bank to the payment batch
• Audit the payments
• Create payment orders
• Print remittance letters
• Post the payments

The uninterrupted payment process

To set up automatic payments, use the following sessions:

• Automatic Process Defaults (tfcmg1190m000)
  Define the default process values to be used during automatic processing. From the appropriate menu, select Defaults by Bank/Payment Method to start the Automatic Process Defaults by Bank/Payment-Receipt Method (tfcmg1191m000) session.
• Automatic Process Defaults by Bank/Payment-Receipt Method (tfcmg1191m000)
  For each set of default process values, define the default bank details to be used during automatic processing.
• CMG Parameters (tfcmg0100s000)
  Select the Invoke Payment Process after Selection check box. In the Payment Process Default ID field, select the default process ID from the Automatic Process Defaults (tfcmg1190m000) session.
• Payment Authorizations (tfcmg1100m000)

  If you select the Payment Batch Approval check box in the CMG Parameters (tfcmg0100s000) session, you must authorize a number of users to approve payment batches.

  If the user who starts the uninterrupted payment process is authorized to approve payment batches, LN automatically approves the batch.

To start the uninterrupted payment process, use one of the following sessions:

• Select Invoices for Payment (tfcmg1220m000)

  Enter the selection criteria for the invoices you want to process, and select the Uninterrupted Payment Run check box. In the Payment Process Default ID field, enter the payment process ID or accept the default value. Next, click Select.

• Process Payments (tfcmg1240m000)

  If you clear the Uninterrupted Payment Run check box in the Select Invoices for Payment (tfcmg1220m000) session, you can use this session to compose the batch and enter a bank relation. If you select the Invoke Payment Process after Selection check box in the CMG Parameters (tfcmg0100s000) session, LN automatically processes the composed batch.
