Create Payments for Vendor Ledger Entries
This feature supports the creation of vendor payments directly from the vendor ledger. It leverages several custom attributes such as Applies-to Doc No, Gift/Request, Payment No, Posting Description, and Memo.
Things to know:
The 'Create Payment' button is a safe alternative to the 'Suggest Vendor Payments' function.
This feature enforces a mandatory vendor verification using the GOverify process to ensure that only verified vendors generate payments. Users encountering an error due to unverified or ineligible vendors will see a popup message detailing the issue.
Step-by-Step User Guidance
Step 1: Navigate to Vendor Ledger Entries
Log in to Business Central and navigate to the "Vendor Ledger Entries" page where vendor transaction details are displayed.
Select the vendor entry for which a payment needs to be created.
Step 2: Use the "Create Payment" Button
Click on the "Create Payment" button. The system will automatically attempt to generate a payment with all the required fields. If the vendor passes the GOverify check, the payment is created successfully. Otherwise, an error message will pop up. Follow on-screen instructions to resolve any errors if they appear.
