Auto-Apply Customer Payments

Auto-Apply Customer Payments

  • Record customer payments and mark them as
    Ready to Auto-Apply
    . Workday automatically selects this option when you select
    Remit-From Customer
    .
  • (Optional) To use Workday-delivered rules, clear the
    Advanced
     check box on the
    Edit Customer Payment Application Configuration
     task.
  • Security:
    Process: Customer Payment Auto-Application
     domain in Customer Accounts functional area.
Workday delivers 8 predefined rules that find and match invoices based on each criteria. You can then run the
Auto-Apply Customer Payments
 task to:
  • Apply adjustments to the matched invoices.
  • Apply either on-account payments, or unapplied payments.
Workday extends this functionality to global transactions as well where the invoices are in the same currency but the company currency is different.
Workday processes:
  • All payments in the numeric sequence from zero to 7, rule by rule rather than payment by payment.
  • Older payments first.
You can see these rules by running the
Workday Delivered Customer Payment Application Rules
 report.
  1. Access the
    Auto-Apply Customer Payments
     task.
  2. As you complete the task, consider:
    Optie Omschrijving
    Customer Payment Auto-Application Criteria
    On the
    Company
     prompt, select the company or company hierarchy to which you want to apply payments.
    Advanced Customer Payment Application Rule Set
    • Workday automatically populates the
      Configured
       field when you configure the advanced customer payment application rule set on the
      Edit Customer Payment Application Configuration
       task. Workday uses this rule set as a default rule set if you don’t define any other rule sets to override it for the company.
    • Workday uses Workday-delivered customer payment application rules when the
      Configured
       field is empty.
    • You can select or create a different rule set to override the default rule set on the
      Override
       prompt.
    Workday doesn’t display the
    Configured
     field when you select a company hierarchy on the
    Company
     prompt.
    Customer Selection
    On the
    Remit-from Customers
     prompt, select the customers that you want to apply the payments to.
    Other Criteria
    Transaction Date to Use
    • For payments:
      • When you leave this field blank, Workday uses the payment date value on a payment as the transaction date.
      • When you specify a transaction date that's on or after the payment date, Workday overrides the payment date of the payments that are part of the auto apply run.
      • When you specify a transaction date that's before the payment date, then Workday uses the payment date.
    • For write-offs:
      • When you leave this field blank, Workday uses the system date as the transaction date.
      • When you process a write-off combined with the payment, auto application rules don't pick up those payments.
    Run Once in the Future
    You can have Workday run auto-apply payments once more in the future by setting a future
    Start Date
     and
    Start Time
    . Enter the applicable
    Time Zone
    .
