Creating a Prepayment on a Payment Selection
You can include new prepayments in a payment selection. When creating a new prepayment, you can enter a reference for the prepayment in the External Number field. This field lets you distinguish between prepayments if the same supplier has several prepayments relating to different orders. The value you enter as a prepayment reference lets you easily identify each prepayment when allocating them to invoices later in the AP process.
To include a new prepayment:
1 In the Payment Selection grid, right-click in a row and select Insert a New Row.
A new row is inserted and the External Number field becomes available.
New Prepayment Line
2 Enter the bank format, supplier, and amount, and other details for the prepayment.
3 Enter up to 40 characters of reference text for the prepayment in the External Number field.
The reference you enter for the prepayment must be unique.
4 Save the payment selection.
