Overview
Business Requirement
In Brazil, suppliers often determine the bank account to which the customer must make payment after the invoice has been created. The bank information on a customer invoice defaults from the Customer record. When creating a payment selection, you can only select invoices where the bank information matches the bank for which the selection was created. Therefore, suppliers often need to manually update bank details on a large mass of customer invoices, which is very time consuming.
QAD Solution
QAD has developed the Customer Invoice Update Bank report (27.1.1.6), which provides a utility that lets you update the bank details on multiple customer invoices simultaneously.
Running the Report
Use Customer Invoice Update Bank to update the bank details on customer invoices. You can run the report in View mode by setting the Update field to No. This displays a report on the invoices that will be updated when you run the report in Update mode.
When updating bank details, the new bank GL account you specify must be linked to the own bank number specified. The own bank number must be linked to the relevant payment format in Bank Payment Format Link (25.11.2), and the new bank details must be linked to the customer record in the Banking tab of Customer Create (27.20.1.1).
