Menu Path: Accounts Receivable Module Setup Customers Payment Remit To Address Maintenance
Define valid remit-to addresses.
Use Payment Remit To Address Maintenance to define valid remit-to addresses for Customer Maintenance. Remit-to addresses are used to direct customers where to send payments.
Example If you have customers throughout the U.S., you might have bank lockboxes located in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York to accelerate the availability of funds. Your West Coast customers’ invoices would have a remit-to address of the bank lockbox located in Los Angeles. Your Mid West customers’ invoices would have a remit-to address of the bank lockbox located in Chicago. Your East Coast customers’ invoices would have a remit-to address of the bank lockbox located in New York.
To add a new remit-to address, click the New button in the ribbon and enter the remit-to address ID and address information. To update a remit-to address, select a remit-to address, and then click the Update button in the ribbon. To delete a remit-to address, click the Delete button in the ribbon.
Note You cannot delete a remit-to address if it has already been set up for a customer. A remit-to address ID of DEFAULT needs to be set up as the default primary remit-to address that is used in the absence of another remit-address during invoice printing.
Example Customer A does not have a specified remit-to address ID. When invoices are printed, the DEFAULT remit-to address will be used.
