Matching and payment options for EBS

Matching options

For matching a business partner's open entries with a bank statement line, the Match Bank Statements (tfcmg5210m000) session provides these options:

  • Match - Surplus on Aging / Unallocated

    The matching process will first match open entries that exactly correspond with the information in the description field of the bank statement line.

    If the total amount of the matched open entries is less than the amount of the bank statement line, the surplus will be allocated to the remaining open entries of the business partner based on aging. If no (remaining) open entries of the business partner are found or if a surplus remains, an unallocated payment or a receipt line will be added to the Matching Results section of the Bank Statement Workbench (tfcmg5610m100)/ Bank Statement (tfcmg5610m000) session.

  • Match - Surplus on Unallocated

    The matching process will first match open entries that exactly correspond with the information in the description field of the bank statement line.

    If no open entries of the business partner are found that can be matched exactly, or if exactly matched open entry amounts are less than the bank statement line amount, an unallocated payment or a receipt line will be added to the Matching Results section of the Bank Statement Workbench (tfcmg5610m100)/ Bank Statement (tfcmg5610m000) session.

  • Match - Surplus to be allocated Manually

    The matching process will first match open entries that exactly correspond with the information in the description field of the bank statement line.

    If no open entries of the business partner are found that can be matched exactly, an unmatched amount remains on the bank statement line. If the amount of the open entries is less than the bank statement line amount, the difference remains as an unmatched amount on the bank statement line.

    To handle the unmatched amount, you can do either of the following:

    • Manually add an unallocated payment or receipt line.
    • Reconcile the surplus with remaining open entries of the business partner.
  • Advanced Reference Matching

    If this check box is selected, Infor LN performs extended matching, where the description or document reference fields do not include the transaction type and document number only.

    For example, if the document reference field include the text "ETEA9F169E9FF954A4FA77CDAE3663765AA" then 169 could be subtracted as document number which Infor LN executes for matching.

    If this check box is cleared, Infor LN matches based on the 'Reference must Fully Match' logic.

    In this case, Infor LN assumes that the description or document reference fields of the Electronic Bank Statement line (sequence) only contain the "Transaction type" + "Document number".

    Examples are "ACR12345678", "ACR-12345678", "ACR 12345678" or "A9/1234" .
