Documentation

Definition

The payment method determines the way in which payments are to be effected, for example, cheque, credit transfer, or bill of exchange.

Use

Payment methods are entered in the master records of the customers and creditors to determine how payments can be made. If a certain payment method is to be used for an open item, enter the method in the item. This payment method must also be specified in the master record of the business partner. In addition, the payment must fulfill the conditions defined for the payment method.

Procedure

You can define the payment methods in the Accounting settings menu by working through the following steps:

  1. First define all of the national criteria that are required for a payment method.
  2. Then define the conditions for the payment method in each company code.

All of the payment methods are displayed in the selection screen for the customer or creditor master record. You can choose the required payment method by selecting it; the system then imports the payment methods into the master record of the business partner.
