Payees

Introduction

The Payees component enables you to comprehensively manage your payee details.

It comprises two tabs, entitled ‘Payee Details’ and’Transactions’, each providing information about the selected payee.

• The Payee Details tab is where you can primarily store name, address and notes for each payee.
• The Transactions tab displays all the transactions related to the currently selected payee and allows you to add, modify and delete transactions for this payee.

Of course, there is no need to enter a payee for your transactions. It is only there if you need that level of detail. You can use the notes section to record guarantee information and contact details. You may also want to add a description to important purchases directly in the transaction. This could be useful for insurance claims for example.

The following tools are available for selection at the top of the component:

• - Payee Search Drop Down List - Click here to search for different payees
• - Show Deleted - Check this box to also show deleted records
• Recently Viewed Payees - Click here to list recently viewed payees
• Create New Payee - Click here to create a new payee

Payee Details Tab

This panel contains a searchable payee address book.

The Address Book part of this panel comprises the following fields:

• Name - The Payee’s Name
• Reference - Use this for any further reference details about the payee
• VAT Number - The Payee’s VAT Number
• Deleted - Checking/Unchecking this tick box will delete/undelete this payee record
• Address Menu - If you have multiple addresses for a payee, selecting a different address from the dropdown menu displays the relevant address details in the fields below
