Hello,
Due to a client request I have re-mapped the BACS file they are using for payments. The 'Vendor Name' has now been re-mapped to the 'Payment ID' field.
The reason for this is due to the fact that certain vendors have 'Special Characters' in their name, and this causes the bank to reject the BACS file during payment. The client did not want to edit the vendors names, so I suggested re-mapping the BACS file to look elsewhere for the vendor name.
We agreed on the payment ID field, and it is now used for vendor names - all special characters have been deleted from the vendor successfully with no issues.
When a payment is generated manually, or a transaction is settled against a vendor, the payment ID (Vendor Name) populates with no issue.
The issue arises when a 'Payment Proposal' is created... for some reason, the payment ID is not auto-populating onto the BACS file whenever a payment proposal is created, even though the payment ID field has been updated with all vendor names using DMF.
Can anybody help with this please?
Many Thanks.
