Set Up Accounts Payable Payments

When you establish settings for AP payments, you can specify defaults for payees, check formats, payment templates, currency formats, and more.

To specify default payment settings:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Settings > Cash Management > Accounts Payable.
  2. On the Payments tab of the Accounts Payable settings form, in Payment Payee, enter or select the name of the individual who is responsible for the payment.
  3. In Printed Payment Format, select the country with the check format that most closely matches the accounts payable format that you use.
    If you select Canada, the Print Date Format Indicator on Payment Face option displays. Set this option to Yes if your check stock does not have the required date format indicator preprinted on the check stock.
  4. In Template, select the check or payment template.
  5. To specify the currency format information to apply to the check face and stub, click in the Currency field to open the Format Currency dialog box and complete the fields on the dialog box.
    The currency formatting applies to any selected check format and template, including custom templates
  6. To specify the date formatting for the date on the check face, click in the Payment Face Date field to open the Format Date/Time dialog box, and complete the fields on the dialog box.
    The date formatting applies to any selected check format and template, including custom templates.
  7. Use Template to select the payment template to use for your accounts payable payments:
    • Deltek two-part: The check face prints on the top third, and the stub prints on the bottom two thirds of the check stock.
    • Deltek three-part: The check face prints on the top third, and two complete (duplicate) stubs print on the bottom two thirds of the check stock.
    • Deltek check on bottom: The check face prints on the bottom third, and the stub prints on the top two thirds of the check stock. This option displays only if you select United Kingdom in the Format field on this tab. This template is formatted to fit A4-sized paper.
    • <Custom template>: If you create custom templates for accounts payable payments, they are included in this drop-down list with their actual file names.
  8. In Vouchers on Stub, enter the number of paid vouchers to print on the check stub, which lists paid items.
  9. Use Remittance Advice to specify whether the remittance advice always prints, only prints for more than a certain number of vouchers (specified in the Vouchers on Stub field), or never prints.
    When you pay vendors by check, the remittance advice lists the paid vouchers on a form that is separate from the check.
  10. Click Save.
