The functionality of settlements allows for:
- associating received or executed payments (cash/bank transactions) with receivables or payables
- compensating documents whose cash flow is opposite e.g., revenue transaction with expense transaction or receivable with payable
In the system, it is possible to complete only the documents within one company to which the operator is logged in. Documents issued within the same company but in different centers can be completed both from the level of that company and from the level of its centers, however, to do so, several configuration settings are required. Documents, which are to be visible in center and to which payments can be made, must be made available in the center which is the owner/issuer of such documents. Additionally, from the level of Configuration → Company Structure → Company → Documents → Visibility, it is necessary to attach cash/bank accounts to centers. If a document is available in a given center, its payment is visible too. In case a shared document was completed from a cash/bank transaction which is not available in given center or company, values of that transaction are masked.
Completions can be made from the level of:
- Payment details of a given document
- Cash/bank transaction details
- List of payments (receivables, payables)
- Customer and vendor payments
- Payment estimate
- Lists of documents and document details
To be able to make payments in all available places of the system, it is necessary to, from the level of <<Configuration → Operator Groups → edition of specific operator group → Other Permissions>>, check parameter Application of payments
