Define Standard Opening and Closing Comments for Payment Advice

Outcome

Standard opening and closing comments and signature definitions are created for each language. They can be reviewed in 'Payment Advice. Enter Text' (ARS035).

The standard texts are automatically proposed in the language specified for the payer in 'Customer. Open' (CRS610/E) when you create a payment advice in 'Payment Advice. Open' (ARS180).

The comments are saved in the parameter file (CSYTAB) and copied to the advice file/payer (FADVI2) when you create the payment advice proposal.

Before you start

• The language specified for the comments must be defined in 'Language. Open' (CRS010).

Follow These Steps

1. Start 'Payment Advice. Enter Text' (ARS035/B).

2. Enter the advice rule to which the comments should be connected and the language of the comments. Press New.

3. On panel (ARS035/E), enter a description (required) and a name.

4. Enter the opening comment (also called pre-text), that is the text presented before the actual list of outstanding invoices on the printed payment advice. Press Enter.

   The comment may consist of up to ten lines.

   To specify that a line in the comment should be left blank when printed in the final payment advice, enter an asterisk (*) in the first position of the line.

5. On panel (ARS035/F), enter the closing comment (the post-text), that is the text presented after the list of invoices.

   The criteria for creating a closing comment are identical to those of the opening comment.
