Payment Account Finding is used in the Payment Journal when running the Suggest Vendor Payments process.By default, a payment journal is linked to a journal batch name, which can only be associated with one bank account. This means that, by default, all payments will be processed through that single bank account.
By configuring Payment Account Finding—either on the bank or directly on specific vendors—it becomes possible for the Suggest Vendor Payments process to use other bank accounts defined in the Payment Account Finding setup, as long as those accounts belong to the same bank as the one connected to the Payment Journal batch.
This document explains how to set up Payment Account Finding from within a bank.The procedure for setting it up from within a vendor is almost identical, except that in this case, the setup is locked to the selected vendor number.
