Direct payment to vendors in dynamics 365

Posted on by Mike0hp 75

Hi folks,

We are trying to setup a direct payment or wire transfer to vendors in business central without going through the bank. I wonder if this is possible or not. Please give me some advice on how to set it up if that possible.

Thank you,

Mike

    There is no built-in functionality to that, AFAIK.

    What country are you in? To go without a bank, you would still need a third-party financial entity to process any transfers, I would think.

    Hi Ron,

    Thank you for your reply. We are in the US. I'm very surprised that Business Central does not provide this function.

    Mike,

    I want to make sure I follow you. Are you trying to process a Payment Journal whereby the actual posting process also sends a payment to a Vendor via a PayPal or payment service? The reason I ask is you are trying to bypass the Bank and wondering what actual process you are thinking about to send the funds?  In BC you can export an ACH/Wire NACHA file to send to the Bank to process.

    Can you explain what you are wanting to accomplish?

    Hi Steven,

    You are right, our CFO feels uploading files to the bank to process a payment is complicated. We were trying to see if there is a way not to go to the bank site and pay the actual payments directly from the ERP system. If Paypal works in BC, that would be great. Could you explain how PayPal works?

    Thank you!

    Mike,

    The PayPal APP is for inbound Customer Payments on their Invoice. Sorry about that. However, my comment about Payment Service is what is available. Integrating BC to a Bill.com or Hyperwallet. You can visit there websites and they have very reasonable API connections to Dynamics. You will need your Partner to assist with the API. I have heard of a Partner who wrote a Bill.com connection but you will need to chat with them if it is available on APP Source.

    I will try offer a a reply to your CFO's assessment of being complicated. The entire process is very simple, let me lay it ouot:

    1. Setup Vendors with their Bank Account Information

    2. Run Payment Journal/Suggest Vendor/Electronic Payment (just like check run)

    3. Export File and Generate the NACHA EFT file

    4. Depending on Bank arrangement, SFTP to your Bank or upload via Web login

    DONE.

    It is that simple. Note that the NACHA format, depending on the Bank, might need some tweaking but your Partner can assist easily there. I have given many clients of mine ACH capabilities and it is very simple.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Direct payment to vendors is a streamlined approach that benefits businesses by simplifying transactions and ensuring timely processing. By directly paying vendors, companies can maintain better cash flow management and strengthen relationships through reliable payment practices. This method reduces delays and avoids intermediary fees, which is crucial for budget management. Additionally, implementing a well-designed payment gateway can make direct payments more efficient and secure.
