Remote Receipts and Payments

Abel’s Remote Customer Receipts and Remote Supplier Payments can be used between a central database and its branch databases or peer to peer between any Abel databases.

Remote Customer Receipts

Abel’s Remote Customer Receipts enable you to process customer receipts for customer invoices in any local or remote Abel databases. Customers may pay you for multiple customer invoices that are in different branch databases. Users in the database that receives the customer receipt allocate the amount received to one or more customer invoices in the local database or in remote Abel databases.

• If a customer sends one payment for customer invoices from multiple remote databases, the receipt can be processed in one database on one customer receipt, even if the customer code is different in the remote databases.
• When the customer receipt is posted, Abel’s inter-database functionality settles the customer invoices in the remote databases.
• Abel’s Remote Customer Receipts also handle deposits or prepayments.

Remote Supplier Payments

Abel’s Remote Supplier Payments enable you to process supplier payments for supplier invoices that are in local or remote Abel databases. You can pay suppliers for multiple supplier invoices in different Abel databases. Users in the database that raises the supplier payment allocate the supplier payment to one or more supplier invoices in the local database or in remote Abel databases.

When the supplier payment is posted, Abel’s inter-database functionality settles the supplier invoices in the remote databases. A remittance advice is generated in the database that initiates the payment, listing all supplier invoices that were paid.
