Advance installment process checks

If you use separate ledger accounts for invoiced and paid advance invoices, you must not process the receipt transactions before the integration transactions related to the advance installment invoices are posted. You can select whether in such a situation, LN warns the user or blocks the process. For automatic processes, LN cannot warn the user and the process is blocked.

In the Pay Advance Invoice/Payment Request Before Advance Installment field of the CMG Parameters (tfcmg0100s000) session, you can select the action LN must take if the integration transactions for advance installments are not yet posted and you create a receipt transaction for the advance installment invoice.

These options are available:

  • No Check
    LN posts the receipt transaction without checking the integration transactions of the advance installment.
  • Warn User

    If the integration transactions for advance installments are not posted, LN displays a warning message. If you acknowledge the message, LN continues to process the receipt transaction.

    For automatic processes, Warn User and Block User often have the same result. LN blocks the process.

  • Block User
    If the integration transactions for advance installments are not posted, LN blocks the receipt transaction.

Whether LN continues the process after detecting an error depends on the type of process. For automatic processes, Warn User and Block User often have the same result because the user cannot be warned. The following table lists the action for each type of process and option other than No Check.
