The Process Payments record view is used to manage the details of ACH, Draft, Wire and/or Check payments. Users may print ACH and check payments, view Journal Details, generate reports, Post or Void (Delete) batches. There are two types of payments that can be processed on this page: Quick Payment or Payment Batch. Once posted, Quick Payments can be manually applied to a document using the Apply Documents button on the Vendor Balances list view. Posting Payment Batches automatically applies the payment to the transaction(s) included in the settlement batch.

This field defaults the most recent payment batch, if one exists. A batch may contain a list of one or more Accounts whose payment(s) are being processed.

The lookup contains a list of all non-posted Batch IDs associated with the user. Database Field: ERPx_MFTransactionBatch.BatchID
Batch Total	Identifies the total amount of all checks and ACH payments included on this payment batch. This is a non-editable calculated text box. For a Quick Payment, this is calculated and defaulted when the page is first opened, or on Save, or another Batch ID is selected.

Clicking 'Confirm' will set the Payment Type of all the ACH records in this Batch to Check, or you can click Cancel and set up the checkbook to support ACH." to be displayed. For Quick Payments, this field is editable while the payment batch is in a status of 'New' until a Payment # has been assigned, then it is disabled. For a Payment Batch, this is always disabled. Checkbooks represent individual bank accounts (checking, savings, petty cash) that have funds deposited into, or payments made out of, that are reconciled to a bank statement.

Status	Identifies the Status of the transaction. This is a single-select standard lookup that defaults as 'New' and is required. This is always editable while the transaction is in a Status of 'New' or 'Approved'. Status is used to identify where a transaction, Purchase Order, Price List, BOM, or Master File record is in its life cycle. Records start in a Status of 'New' and progress sequentially through additional statuses until they are 'Posted' or 'Closed'. The list of potential Statuses changes depending on the transaction type. New: This is the default Status for all new Transactions. While in the Status of 'New' transactions are considered open and all editable fields are open for edit, no posting or approval validations are performed, GL Dates are not assigned, and journal entries are not created. If the transaction was moved back from Approved to New, the GL Date will be assigned and a Journal Entry will exist. Approved: Performs all the data validations required to post the transaction and applies to all Transactions. While in the Status of 'Approved' transactions are considered open but have limited fields open for edit. If one or more validations fail, messages are provided indicating what needs to be corrected. If all the validations pass, then all the fields are disabled except for the Status lookup (and any fields that are always editable), journal entries are created/updated, journal ID's are assigned to the journal entry, and blank 'GL Dates' are assigned. Saving the Payment batch as Approved (or greater) will automatically assign any Payment #'s that have not already been assigned. Ready to Post: Runs the Approval validations and applies to all transactions. While in the Status of 'Ready to Post' transactions are considered closed and all the fields are disabled with the exception of a few fields that are always editable. If one or more validations fail, messages are provided indicating what needs to be corrected. If all the validations pass, then all the fields are disabled with the exception any fields that are always editable and updates the Transaction Status to "Posted". Once the batch is posted, the Posted Balance and Net Balance for the Vendor's account(s) will be updated. When posting a Payment Batch, the payment will automatically be applied to the included transactions on the payment batch. Posting a Quick Payment will not result in any applications. Note: If the payment pays the Posted Balance in full, the Vendor's Balance line item will no longer appear unless the 'Hide Vendors where all balances are 0.00' filter is set to "No".
Wire	Identifies the total amount of all Wire payments included on this payment batch. This is a non-editable calculated text box. For a manual payment, this is calculated and defaulted when the page is first opened, or on Save, or another Batch ID is selected. For a Payment Batch, this amount is calculated once the batch is Saved. This field is never editable by the user. Database Field: ERPx_MFTransactionBatch.WireTotal

Payment Grid

The Process Payments grid allows users to view or manage the details of all payments being written as part of a payment batch or quick payment. From this grid, users are also able to update Address and Payee information.

Fields	Description
Toolbar Icons	Description
Add Item	Inserts blank lines that allow adding multiple new records.
Column Filter Show/Hide	Toggles between displaying and hiding a filter row in the grid under the column headers. The filter row will be displayed by default if the Quick Column Filter is also implemented in the page. When enabled, this will allow users to type in text to filter by a specific column.
Excel	Exports the contents of the grid to an Excel file that will automatically download. The contents that export are those that are visible to the user. Therefore, if the user has filtered the view, or excluded columns, only the contents in the grid will be exported.
Group By Show/Hide	Toggles between displaying and hiding a row in the grid above the column headers to enable grouping by one or more column(s). Once displayed, users may drag and drop column headers to group by a specific column. Once the grid is grouped by a column(s), a subtotal footer row will display in the grouping for columns that have a page footer total.
Quick Column Filter	Used to filter across all columns in the grid. When the user types text into the Quick Column Filter text box, the grid's Filter Row will be automatically hidden. The text in the Quick Column Filter text box automatically replaces any existing Filter Row filters. The results of the data immediately refresh as you enter text.
Remove Items	Removes the selected line(s). When clicked, you are prompted with the message "Are you sure you want to delete n item(s)? Okay or Cancel". This cannot be done on transactions with a Status of 'Approved', Ready to Post', 'Posted', 'Closed', 'Void', or 'Replaced'.
Saved Layouts	Displays the column layout lookup and related icons. This tool allows users to select a previously saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, forget/delete a layout and/or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to the layout, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Save Layout icon and save the changes to the column layout. The visibility of the Filter Row is also saved with a saved layout. The new layout can also be set as the default. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific). Default layouts can be removed by clicking the 'Set as Default' button again when the current default layout is selected. Please note that existing saved grid layouts will display the Filter Row as hidden by default.
