What Are Cycle codes?

Note: Balance Forward type customers will have their statement cycle code automatically assigned based on their search name at the time of creating customer records in Customer (AR10.1).

Cycle codes control the selection and processing of statements, finance charges and dunning notices. There are three types of cycle codes.

Statement cycle codes

(B) Balance Forward and (O) Open Item

These codes allow you to group customers for statement printing. The (B) cycle code requires a beginning and ending range that lets you divide large statement runs.

Note: You should define more than one code if your company has both open item and balance forward customers or if you want to print statements for only a group of customers at one time.

Finance charge cycle codes

(F) Finance Charges

These codes allow you to control customer selection when you generate finance charges.

Dunning notice cycle codes

(D) Dunning Notice

These codes allow you to control customer selection when you generate dunning letters.
