Re: AR self-bill

Yes when lock box is set up correctly it is very smooth.  beware though, I 
just spent several weeks sorting out problems created by someone setting 
things up incorrectly prior to my starting here at Tandy.

Neil,

Check out Lock Boxes, I think you will find it does what you need.

I haven't implemented it.. just tried to get it going.  Richard may shed
some light.

Regards

Michael

Subject: [SYSTEM21] AR self-bill


We are about to start self-billing selected customers, and would like to
know if anyone has done anything similar to the following;

Customers will have their due balance withdrawn from their bank accounts
via a "Direct Debit" facility.  (We know how to do this.)  The area I'm
less sure about is how to update AR with the payments taken.  For
instance, when we request payment, we would like to post and allocate
that cash against the invoice(s) concerned.  If we are subsequently
notified that a payment request was refused, we would like to reverse
the "allocation" and put the invoice back as outstanding.

I don't believe the standard AR Interface will handle allocations (?)
and am expecting to have to write something from scratch.  Just wondered
if anyone has done anything similar?

Thanks in advance,

Neil.
