Interfacing Payments

After money has been collected either through your bank (lockbox) or an external system (non-lockbox), you will need to interface the payments into the Accounts Receivable application. In this procedure, you will learn how to interface both lock box and non-lock box payment records. These processes create payment records, but do not apply the cash to any open items. See the Accounts Receivable File Layouts in KB2218730 in Infor Customer Portal and the Knowledge base articles referenced in these procedures.

The lockbox payment records must be formatted in a standard Bank Administration Institute (BAI) format before they can be interfaced. The non-lockbox payments can be generically formatted.
