Selecting Bills of Exchange for Remittance

The next step to processing bills of exchange is selecting bills of exchange with an accepted status for remittance. When selecting bills of exchange, you have two choices: to discount them or encash them. There are two forms used to select BOE's, but it depends on whether you defined your company to use remittance control or not, on the BOE tab of Company (AR01.1). The following procedures will describe how to select bills of exchange for remittance, encash or discount them, and which form to use based on whether you use remittance control or not.
