Create payments for a customer who have direct debit mandates

  • Article

This procedure shows how to generate an ISO20022 direct debit payment file for a customer who has direct debit configured and an invoice to be paid. Creating and posting an invoice is optional. Instead of having an invoice to be paid you can select a mandate in a journal prior to generating a payment file, to support a customer prepayment scenario.

The demo data company used to create this procedure is DEMF.

This is the fifth of five procedures that demonstrate the customer payment process using electronic reporting configurations. Before you can complete this task, you must complete the earlier tasks.
