Debtors Banking

The Debtor Banking application can be found in the following menu selection Main Menu > Financials > Accounting > Accounts Receivable > Banking.

There are two functions of this application:

  • To produce a consolidated banking value for the bank reconciliation program.
  • To optionally produce a banking supplement report.

Whether this application or process needs to be run is entirely dependent on how the user company's bank processes multiple item deposits or withdrawals.

Debtors Banking

As an example, 5 cheques are to be physically banked (not direct credited), and a deposit form is filled out detailing the 5 cheques.

If the physical bank statement shows the total sum of the 5 cheques as one line, then debtors banking should be run to consolidate the 5 receipts in Tourplan NX into one line for the bank reconciliation.

If the bank statement shows the individual value of each cheque, then debtors banking will not have to be run since the separate Tourplan receipts will be displayed in the bank reconciliation.

Create a Banking Transaction

The Debtors Banking program are accessed from the Accounting application.

On entry to the Banking Transaction program, there are From/To date filter selection fields to find and scroll existing bankings. They default to the current date.

  1. The Transaction Selections screen will display with the Filter tab open.
  2. On the Transaction Selection Filter Tab, enter the required detail to set the Transaction search criteria. Selections can be filtered by:
    1. Date Entered From/To
    2. Account Name & Number
    3. Currency
    4. Transaction Date From/To
  3. Within the Transaction Selection Filter Tab, select the required payment type(s) by checking all, or specific Payment Type. If G.L. Banking Transactions are to be included in the banking, select Transactions From General Ledger.
