Documentation

Definition

Determines how payments are to be made, for example, by check, bank transfer or bill of exchange.

Use

You enter payment methods in the master data for FI customer accounts and FI vendor accounts to specify how payments are made. If an open item is to be paid using a specific payment method, enter it in the open item. The conditions defined for the payment method must be satisfied for the payment.

You define the payment methods in the settings menu in accounting by completing the following steps:

1. First, make all settings that are required for a country-specific payment method.
2. Then define the conditions under which a payment method can be used, for each company code.

All payment methods are displayed in the master records for FI customer accounts or FI vendor accounts in the screen for selecting the payment method. Here you select the preferred payment method by highlighting it; the system transfers the payment methods to the business partner master data.
