Payable Slip Fields

Description

Payable ID

A unique numeric identifier assigned to the payable when it is created. This value cannot be changed.

Buyer Reference

A custom field value that is communicated to the supplier and used as your company’s primary identifier. If a Buyer Reference field is specified in the hierarchy settings, a value for it is automatically assigned when the payable is created and cannot be changed by modifying the payable. However, a program administrator can modify the hierarchy settings and change the custom field that will be used as the Buyer Reference for payables created in the future. For more information, see Customizing Your Company Profile.

Invoices

A list of the invoices (if any) associated with the payable. See Invoice Fields for descriptions of these fields.

Transactions

A list of all transactions that have been posted against the payable. For each transaction, the transaction date, ID, merchant name, and post date are shown, along with the settlement (posted) amount and the original (requested) amount. In addition, this tab displays an indicator of whether or not the transaction was automatically included in the payable and, if not, the reason why it was excluded. For a description of the exclusion reasons, see Exception Status Reasons.

A list of the posted transactions that have been authorized or declined for the payable. For each transaction, the transaction date and time, merchant name, Merchant Category Code, amount, and status are shown. If a transaction was declined, the reason is indicated.
