Setting up Payment Profiles (PYP) - General

The range of accounts for which transactions are considered for payment in this profile. Leave this blank to include all accounts. If you are defining a profile for a Payment Run, you would select a range of creditor/payables or client accounts. If you are defining a profile for a Payment Collection Run, you would select a range of debtor/receivables or client accounts.

If you want to enter an account range at run time, you can leave these fields blank and select Account Code as a run time selection criteria. If you enter an account range at run time, this overrides any range of accounts you enter here in the profile.

The range of Priority Rating codes, for which accounts are considered for payment using this profile. The Priority Rating code is used to group customers and suppliers for any reason. For example, you might assign priority numbers to identify high, medium and low priority suppliers or customers. The code is set on customers using Customers (CUS) or suppliers using Supplier (SUS) and applies to the appropriate debtors/receivables, creditor/payables or client accounts. Leave this blank to ignore the Priority Rating codes.

A range of values used to include or exclude accounts or transactions for payment. This threshold range can apply to an account balance or transaction amount, depending on the choice you make in the Apply To field. An account or transaction is only included in the payment run if the Apply To amount is within this threshold.

The amount to which the threshold range applies. The following options are available:

• Ignore indicates that an amount threshold range is not required. This is the default option.
• Balances indicates that the amount threshold applies to the account balance. Only accounts with a payment balance within the threshold range are considered for payment.
• Transactions indicates that the amount threshold applies to the individual account transactions. Only transactions that fall within the threshold range are selected for payment and all others are ignored.

The run time selection criteria for the payment profile. Up to five selection criteria can be selected for the profile. The criteria you choose here is presented when you run Payment Run (PYR), or Payment Collection Run (PYC), to allow you to refine the selection at run time.

A transaction must meet all of these run time selection criteria, and any other selection criteria, to be included for payment. The run time selections you make in Payment Run (PYR) and Payment Collection Run (PYC) are stored, and recalled when you run the profile again.

Determines whether provisional postings should be excluded from the payment profile.
