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.
