Lock Box Interface (AR570)
Run Lock Box Interface (AR570) to import payments to the Lawson Accounts Receivable system from a file created by an external source.
The file must be formatted in a standard BAI (Bank Administration Institute) format.
Processing Effect
The program edits the external data to protect the integrity of the Accounts Receivable data. The program creates a report in payment number order that includes each field that failed an edit, the field data, a description of the error, and totals for the number of records processed, payments added, and total errors.
The currency of the cash code associated with the lock lox is the currency of all payments associated with the lock box. The amount of each payment is assumed to be in the transaction currency of the payment. The original, transaction amount is preserved, and the payment amount is converted to the company base currency.
