General information about Creating and Reverting Payments 

Creating a payment will save the payment directly, with payment status "New". The payment will have to be approved before exporting, it can otherwise be reverted. If a payment is reverted the 

transaction status changes from Unlocked to Confirmed and will be show in pending cash flows again. If the deal needs to be updated then the deals status Confirmed needs to be changed to 

modified and then the transaction can be updated confirmed and new payments can be created in pay. 

Related transactions are automatically Locked or Unlocked (where possible, see Transaction Status) when creating/reverting payments. 


If the cash flow does not have a receiving account, you can only create payments with the status Manual and No Payment. In order to create a payment with the status New the receiving account 

must be chosen.


Payment on behalf of 

Definition: payment to extern party on behalf of an other legal entity, ex.  treasury makes a payment to a bank on behalf of a subsidiary. 


The aim is to increase the number of external bank accounts and reduce the number of people who has right to withdraw money from the accounts. 


We suppose that it is treasury who is the legal entity in the external affair witch we solve by making the payment from treasury who has internal transactions with the subsidiary.


The solution will be that the subsidiary deals with treasury who makes a mirror of the affair internal. The internal transaction will be handled with help by accounting rules and netting rules. 

The external affair will be handled by treasury who is also dealing the payment by payment rules.
