Suggest Vendor Payments
Suggest Vendor Payments is used to retrieve posted purchase documents to be paid in the Payment Journal.
The Business Central Feature Pack includes a new field Summarize per Vendor which provides functionality to consolidate multiple purchase documents by Vendor that would normally appear in the Suggest Vendor Payments. For example, Vendor 0001 has 50 purchase documents that normally would display as 50 separate lines in the Payment Journal after Suggest Vendor Payments is run. However, if Summarize per Vendor is selected (true), the 50 purchase documents are consolidated into one line for payment. When the check is printed, each purchase document is listed on the check stub.
Remittance Advice
If the number of documents paid is greater than 10 documents, the purchase documents are printed on a separate Remittance Advice report, after check printing has completed.
Set up Remittance Advice Report
From the Search box, search for Report Selections - Purchase.
From the Usage field drop-down, select Feature Pack Remittance Advice-Journal.
Set the Report ID value to 72519606 (previously 87560) - (Remittance Advice - Journal.)
