2. Add all the decrease amounts.

4. If the tax codes used are marked U (use tax) on Tax Code (TAXT), add together all the adjustment amounts on the lines (pay attention to signs) and subtract that amount from the result of #3

Note: Vendor Code cannot be Miscellaneous if the Object Code is 1099 reportable.

Select Yes [Y] if you want a separate check printed specifically for this voucher. If No [N] is selected, the system adds this voucher's amounts together with other vouchers for the same vendor (by check category) to obtain a combined voucher check amount. On a modification document, select No Change .

Check Category

When blank and EFT is set to Yes [Y] , the application type is automatically taken from the referenced Vendor Invoice (VI), as long as the application types on all of the Vendor Invoice (VI) documents referenced on this payment voucher are the same.

If EFT is set to Yes [Y] and there are no Vendor Invoice (VI) documents to take the application type from, the application type infers from Electronic Funds Transfer (1 of 2) (EFTT). Otherwise, the user must supply this field.

Scheduled Pay Date

Default automatically assigns a date according to the following rules:

If Vendor (VEN2) has a value recorded in Scheduled Payment Day for this document's vendor, that value is used. The payment day is the day of the month when you want to pay this vendor. The system assigns the payment date using this day and the current month, or, if the resulting date has already passed, the next month.

The System Payment Lag on System Control Options (SOPT) is used when no other date or payment day is specified. The payment lag is the number of days from the voucher date when you want to issue payment.

When both Scheduled Payment Day on Vendor (VEN2) and System Payment Lag on System Control Options (SOPT) are blank, the system date will be used.

Applies only to vouchers for outside vendors. Enter the date when you want the check for this payment voucher issued, if you want to override the system computed date.
