Setting up payment references on sales documents

Use payment references to include country-specific payment references on sales invoices, reminders, and finance charge memos. Continia Banking includes a default Danish FIK setup and lets you configure additional formats, such as Swedish OCR Bank Giro, ISO 11649 RF, Dutch betalingskenmerk, and Norwegian KID references.

When customers use these references when making payments, Continia Banking can identify the related customer ledger entries during bank statement import. This helps automate payment reconciliation and reduces manual matching.

Hinweis

Make sure that for Danish FIK references, you have specified a Bank Creditor No. on the Company Information page. For Swedish OCR Bank Giro references, you have specified a Giro No. on the Company Information page.

To set up payment references

To set up payment references:

  1. Search () for and select Sales & Receivables Setup.
  2. On the action bar, click Continia Payment References > Payment Reference Setup. The setup page shows: The document type, the assigned template, the reference format, whether the setup is enabled, and an example reference

Wichtig

Continia Banking doesn't store the payment reference on the document, but generates the payment reference each time you print the document. If no enabled template exists, the payment reference field remains blank.

  1. Search () for and select Payment Reference Setup.
  2. Click New.

Go to Layouts > Export and Update Layout action on the Report Layouts page to download the layout, add the reference, and then import the changes back into Business Central. Report layouts can be customized and selected when running a report.
