Payment Schedules in Ax 2012

                Using Payment Schedules in Ax 2012

Payment schedules allow users to define custom rules that govern the payments being maintained in the system. In order to use the payment schedules the users must create payment schedules, attach these schedules to Purchase orders/Invoices.

When running the payment proposal for the vendor invoices the system automatically considers the payment schedule at the invoice & suggests the payments accordingly.

Create a Payment Schedule:

Accounts Payable –> Setup –> Payment –> Payment Schedule.

In the example we will create 3 types of Payment schedule & see the impact on the payment entries.

1. When the Payment entries are to be distributed on a monthly basis & based on some %. eg. 50% in 1st month, 20% in 2nd etc.

In the above setup, the payments are to be made on a monthly basis & on specific percentage.

When creating a PO/PI the payment schedule is defined at the Header –> Price & Discount fast tab –> Payment Schedule.

Create a Payment Journal  & on the lines select the option for payment proposal

Once done the system will propose the Payment entries as below.
