Definition

To control notes to payees, you can divide them up into the following categories:

  1. Note to payee for item/document

This text appears on the customer's account statement

  1. Note to payee for internal use

This text is only visible in your internal accounting.

  1. Note to payee for external use

This note to payee is for the customer, so you need to include a unique reference to the item.

A: Payment advice reference

If you do not have enough information lines to identify the item for the customer uniquely, then a payment advice is sent to the customer. The system creates a corresponding note with a note to payee that has category A.
