Electronic Payments Card File Setup

Back Top Previous Next

Before using Electronic Payments, you must first add the bank BSB, account number and vendor lodgement reference number to the customer/vendor cardfiles for whom electronic payments will be used.

 

To do this, view a vendor cardfile, go to the Contacts tab, then click Edit.

6.To use a vendor lodgement reference number, select the Type drop down and choose Vend Lodgement Ref or Cust Lodgement Ref, then enter the reference.

Info

Lodgement reference numbers can only contain alphanumeric characters. If the vendor has an account number they would like to see on the payment, you can enter that account number in the Vend Lodgement Ref field.

 

If no lodgement reference number is entered:

For creditors, the purchase order number will be used

For debtors, the invoice number will be used.

7.Click Save.

Go to the Card tab and confirm the new details are correctly recorded.
