Definition

The payment method determines how payments are to be made, e.g. check, bank transfer.

Use

You enter payment methods in the master records of vendors and customers in order to set how payments are to be made. If an open item is to be payed for using a certain payment method, enter this for the open item. The conditions defined for the payment method must be fulfilled for the payment to occur.

Procedure

You can define the payment method in the settings menu under accounting by carrying out the following steps:

  1. First enter all definitions that are country-specific for a certain payment method.
  2. Then define for each company code under what conditions a payment method can be used.

On screen, all payment mehods are offered in the customer or vendor master record. Choose the desired payment method by marking it. The system transfers the payment method to the master record of your business partner.
