Business value

This feature saves time and frustration among your staff by letting you validate a vendor bank account before submitting a payment journal for that vendor to workflow. When there's an issue with a bank account that's used in a payment journal that has been submitted to workflow, the issue will stop the workflow process when the issue is encountered. When that happens, a member of your accounts payable staff must correct the issue and then resubmit the payment journal to workflow. Finding and fixing potential errors in advance can save time and help prevent the frustration that can arise.

Feature details

In earlier versions, you could submit a vendor payment journal to the workflow process even if the information for the vendor's bank account was incorrect. This feature lets you identify issues with the vendor's bank account before submitting the payment journal to workflow, thereby letting you correct the issue before it surfaces as an error during the workflow process.
