Description
ACB Transfer An ACB tape will be produced for these creditors, and it is obvious that the creditor's full bank details are required in such cases. These transfers are generated in option {FPMOPD-2} or {FACO-21}. These payments can be queried and cancelled in option {FACO-22} and {FACM-1} respectively. The tape is made in an option of {FACM-2} and payment advices are printed in option {FPMOPD-28}. Option {FPMOPD-2} or {FACO-21} is linked to an event "FI = PM - ACB Payment Generation", and the user should therefore link a transaction to this event in option {FCSO-7}. The Cash Book Code that will be used is linked to the PM Account Type and not the Cash Book Code of the Transaction Type or any other definition. The Cash Book journal {FCBO-1} for bank reconciliation is also created for the total of the ACB Transfer. The transaction will represent the following journal:

- Type of Document is PA - Dt to Creditors Control of the PM Account Type Control GLA - Cr to Cash Book Definition Control GLA. Expense GLA
Bank transfer B A Bank Summary Report per bank will be produced listing all creditors plus the amounts due and the total amount for the specific bank. A Transfer Request, supported by this list, can then be made out to the institution's bank. Once again, it is obvious that full bank details are required for such creditors. These transfers are generated in option {FPMOPD-3}.

Payment advices are printed in option {FPMOPD-28} and Bank Transfer List is printed in option {FPMOPD-29}. Option {FPMOPD-3} is linked to an event "FK = PM - National Draft Payments", and the user should therefore link a transaction type to this event in option {FCSO-7}. The Cash Book Code that will be used is linked to the PM Account Type and not the Cash Book Code of the Transaction Type or any other definition. The Cash Book journal {FCBO-1} for bank reconciliation is also created for the total of the Bank Transfer. The transaction will represent the following journal:

- Type of Document is PB - Dt to Creditors Control of the PM Account Type Control GLA - Cr to Cash Book Definition Control GLA. Expense GLA 
International Draft E An "International Draft" will be produced for these creditors. These transfers are generated and can be printed via option {FPMOPD-4} and payment advices under {FPMOPD-28}. If the "Received Invoice/Credit Note", option {FPMO-3}, was not used, a "Special International Draft Application" can also be produced in option {FPMOPD-31}. Option {FPMOPD-4} is linked to an event "FL = PM - International Draft Payments", and the user should therefore link a transaction type to this event in option {FCSO-7}. The Cash Book Code that will be used is linked to the PM Account Type and not the Cash Book Code of the Transaction Type or any other definition. The Cash Book journal {FCBO-1} for bank reconciliation is also created for each International Draft. The transaction will represent the following journal:

- Type of Document is PI - Dt to Creditors Control of the PM Account Type - Cr to Cash Book Definition Control GLA.
Journal Advice J It could happen that an internal department/section/institute is the supplier, and that the institution elects not to produce cheques for such organisations. On creating such creditor's masters, the user will supply an existing GL-Allocation (refer option {FPMM-2}). When the "pay run" is done, the balance on the creditor's account is calculated and a journal will be produced instead of generating a payment. This journal will debit the "Creditors Control Account" and credit the account indicated on the master record (normally the revenue account of this creditor in our books). These transfers are generated in option {FPMOPD-4} and payment advices are printed in option {FPMOPD-28}. Option {FPMOPD-4} is linked to an event "FM = PM - Journal Payment Generation", and the user should therefore link a transaction to this event in option {FCSO-7}. The transaction will represent the following journal:

- Type of Document is CJ - Dt to Creditors Control of the PM Account Type - Cr to Revenue Account as specified on Creditor Master Record
Cheque Q For these creditors the system will generate cheques. These transfers are generated in option {FPMOPD-1} and payment advices are printed in option {FPMOPD-28}. Option {FPMOPD-1} is linked to an event "FH = PM - Cheque Payment Generation" and the user should therefore link a transaction type to this event in option {FCSO-7}. The Cash Book Code that will be used is linked to the PM Account Type and not the Cash Book Code of the Transaction Type or any other definition. The transaction will represent the following journal:

- Type of Document is PQ - Dt to Creditors Control of the PM Account Type - Cr to Cash Book Definition Control GLA.

Although a (C)ash, (M)anual Cheques and (S)top Order payment methods are also displayed on this screen, but are not allowed in this subsystem.
