This activity is used to enter a supplier payment. This payment can be matched with one or more open supplier ledger items, or created as a payment in advance/payment on account or as a new (difference) item. You can also create parked payments (i.e. supplier payments not connected to a specific supplier) using this activity.
When matching open ledger items, the open items can be fully or partially matched. Differences between payment and matched amounts can be handled as a cash discount, write-off, interest, fine, tax withheld or as new unsettled item.
You can also match open items of companies which are posted in another company apart from the cash paying company. The cash paying company is always the company for which you enter the mixed payment. New unsettled items can be created for another company. However, parked payments can be entered only for the cash paying company.
For unmatched payment transactions (new difference items, payments on account/in advance or parked payments) preposting can be entered for all code parts except for the account.
