Process Payments
When you make a payment to a vendor, you post the payment in a payment journal. You can use the Suggest Vendor Payments batch job in the payment journal to find payments that are due. You can also use the Vendor - Summary Aging report to get an overview of payments that are due.
From the payment journal, you can print computer checks or record when checks are written manually.
When Computer Check is selected in the Bank Payment Type field in the Payment Journal, the checks must be printed before the journal lines can be posted.
The following table describes a sequence of tasks, with links to the topics that describe them. These tasks are listed in the order in which they are generally performed.
