Road Map: Payment Inquiry

Use the Payment Inquiry (NCI) program to display payments issued to a vendor.

Before you run this program each time

You should run these programs in this sequence:

AP Invoice Entry (NE) to enter vendor invoices and print the AP Invoice Register.
Vendor Payments (NC) to select invoices for payment and print the Cash Requirements Report.
(Conditional) Check Print (NCP) to print a batch of checks.
AP Payment Register (NCR) to print the AP Payment Register and update the general ledger.

You may also have run:

AP Transaction Archive (NEX) to print a listing of invoices and fixed expenses with a balance of zero and move them to history.

You should run these programs:

System Options Maintenance (XM) (Enterprise Options) to select a date display format for your enterprise, Branch Maintenance (TBM) to select a date display format for your branch, or User Maintenance (UIM) to select a date display format for an individual user.
System Options Maintenance (XM) (Help and Other Path Options) to set the Base path option and copy check images provided by your financial institution to that location.
Payment Method Batch Maintenance (TAPMB) to set up payment method batches and the GL organizations and accounts used.
Vendor Maintenance (VM) to set up vendors.
Output Device Maintenance (XDM) to set up the output devices that you plan to use.
Date-Output Device Maintenance (ZE) to select your default output device and set whether you can override that device.

You will most likely run these programs:

(Conditional) AP Payment Reversal (NVC) to void a check for reconciliation purposes, reverse payments posted to the general ledger, and print the AP Payment Reversal Register.

AP-Purchasing Inquiry (NDQ) to display which check paid a particular invoice for a particular purchase order.
Vendor Invoice Inquiry (NDI) to display the distribution for a vendor invoice.
Vendor Service Inquiry (VSI) to display invoice information, invoice history, and AP aging information for a vendor.
