Check External Payments

Explanation

Use this activity to view previously loaded payment files from the company’s payment institutes. If the check box Error is checked, one or more transactions is incorrect. Use the right mouse button function Details to view detailed information on each underlying transaction.

The load ID is checked for errors and for warnings while loading, if the Allow Automatic Matching check box in the External Payment Parameters window is selected. If it is not selected, the load ID has to be checked manually in the External Payments per Load ID window.

If there are errors or warnings in the transactions, the Error field and/or the Warning field will display information about it. If no errors are displayed the Error check box will not be selected in the External Payment window. As a result of this, you can transfer the load ID to a bank statement.
