A payment order reminder is a document sent to the debtor to inform them that they have not accepted their payment orders within due time.
There are three stages of issuing a payment order reminder:
- The system makes a proposal of reminders to be issued according to your selections. A control list can be printed any time. At this stage the reminders are preliminary. Changes are made in the next step.
- You make changes in the proposal and print new check lists until you are satisfied with the proposal.
- The reminders are issued and printed and payment orders are updated with the new reminders.
Due time
Due time is calculated from the issue date from the A/R payment proposal plus the number of days indicated as reminder grace days in the Business partner file for each debtor and payment mode.
Calculation date
The system proposes the actual date, but if you are late with updating accepted payment orders you can select another date. This date is only for the calculation. It is the selection date, i.e., the actual date when the proposal was created, that will be the document date of the reminder. The calculation date will be printed on the reminders as the reminder date up to which acceptance has been registered.
Note: This automatic issuing routine can only be run by one user at a time, and only one proposal can be active.
Printouts
- Payment order reminder control list – displays the reminders included in the proposal.
- Reminder – one per combination debtor and currency. For sundry debtors, there will be one reminder note per invoice.
