Reminder Diary Margin

The number of days by which the due date of an invoice is extended to receive the default action date.

Action date = reminder diary margin + due date

Same Letter for All Statements

If this check box is selected, all reminders have the same letter number. You must enter this number in the following field.

If this check box is cleared, the reminders for all the open invoices consist of a letter number that corresponds with the reminder status.

Letter Number

If the Same Letter for All Statements check box is selected, you must enter the fixed letter number for all reminders in this field.

The letter number indicates the number of reminders that have been sent.

Restrict Highest Letter No.

If this check box is selected, reminders are sent up to a maximum letter number. You must define the maximum letter number in the Letter Number field. Invoices selected that require a higher letter number still have the maximum number.

If this check box is cleared, reminders are sent for each invoice using the letter number that corresponds with the invoice's reminder status.

Example

You have defined four different letter numbers for reminders. If your business partners do not pay, you only want them to receive the reminders with letter number one through three in the reminding procedure. To achieve this, you select three in the Letter Number field. Now your business partners can never receive printed reminders using letter number four.

Letter Number

If you have indicated, in the Restrict Highest Letter No. field that you want to restrict the highest letter number to be used for reminders, you must now enter the highest letter number.

Group All Lett. Under Highest

If this check box is selected, all reminders for a business partner receive the same letter number: the highest number. The highest number is the one that is used for the reminder of the invoice with the earliest due date.

Example

A business partner has several outstanding invoice amounts. You already sent a reminder for some of them. When a new set of reminders is sent, these invoices require a higher letter number than those for which you sent a first reminder. This means that you must send different reminders to one customer. However, you can indicate in the current field that all invoices of one customer must be combined under the highest letter number.

Action for Zero or Negative Amounts

Indicate the type of action you will take when the amount on open invoices and due invoices, for which a reminder must be sent, is less than or equal to zero.

You have the following options:

• Send
• Do Not Send
• Print on Error List
• Exclude from not Selected Report

Separate Letter for Non-Due Invoices

If this check box is selected, reminders with the first letter number are sent for invoices that are not yet due.

Blank Lines at Top of First Page

You must specify the number of lines to be left blank at the top of the first page of the reminder. This space can be used as a letter head.

Blank Lines at Top of Following Pages

You must specify the number of lines to be left blank at the top of the pages that follow the first page.

This space can be used for example, for your company's logo.

Blank Lines at Bottom of Page

You must specify the number of lines to be left blank at the bottom of each reminder page.

Enable variables for Reminder Text

If this check box is selected, LN does not use the standard address and you must supply the complete header text and footer text. You can use the Variables for Reminder Text (tfacr3502s000) session to select the variables to be printed on the reminder.

If this check box is cleared, header and footer text for all reminder letters and statement of account letters is deleted. LN uses the address of the invoice-to business partner on the reminder. In addition to the standard address, you can append some text to a letter in the Variables for Reminder Text (tfacr3502s000) session.

To access the Variables for Reminder Text (tfacr3502s000) session:

1. In the Reminder Letters (tfacr3508m000) session, select the letter for which you want to compose a reminder letter.
2. On the toolbar, click the Edit Text button, and then, in the Texts dialog box, click OK ( Header Text selected).
