Match a bank transaction or incoming payment line to different documents

You can match a bank transaction or incoming payment against multiple, different documents, for example, documents from different workspaces.

You can activate automatic splitting of payments on bank statements and/or incoming payments import by selecting the Automatic split of batch payment from customers into payments per customer check box on the Bank statements settings and/or Incoming payments settings tab in the Cash management preferences (CA101000) window. You then only need to process them in the respective windows.
  1. Go to the Process bank transactions (CA306000) or Process incoming payments (AR305000) window.
  2. Select a cash account in the top part.
  3. In the left pane table, select the line that you want to match.
  4. In the Create payment tab (in the Process incoming payments (AR305000) window) or Create document tab (in the Process bank transactions (CA306000) window), fill in the required information and select the first document to match. If an amount is remaining, the Split button will appear.
  5. Click Split and a new line will appear below the original line in the left table, marked with an arrow.
    The original line will be adjusted with a new amount and the Ready to process check box will be selected. The new line will have the unapplied amount in the Receipt or Disbursement field, depending on whether the unapplied amount is positive or negative.
  6. Select the new line and perform the same procedure as in Step 4 to match it against a different document.
    You can continue splitting as long as the line has an unapplied amount.
  7. Click . The system selects the Ready to process check box in the left pane table.
  8. You can now continue processing the lines.
