Create Payment Document Proposal
Explanation
This activity is used to create a payment document proposal for one or more
customer invoice installments due for payment that are either manually selected
by you, or match a specified selection criteria. Payment document proposals
facilitate the payment of selected customer invoice installments using customer
bills of exchange and customer checks.
- Open the Payment
Document Proposals page
- Use command button and select Create Proposal to open the dialog
Create Payment Document Proposal.
- Select Invoice Date if you want invoices to be included in the
payment document proposal to be selected based on the date on which the
invoice is created. Select Due Date if you want invoices to be included
in the payment document proposal to be selected based on the date on which
the invoice is due to be paid.

Date (if Invoice Date is selected) or in the section Current

document proposal.

Payment Methods.

want to exclude the invoices of customers whose total amount due is negative.
