AP160


AP160 - Payment Tape Creation

**Form Purpose
Run Payment Tape Creation (AP160) to create a payment tape in the ACH
(Automated Clearing House) or BACS (Bankers Automated Clearing System) to pay
invoices scheduled by the most recent run of AP150 (Cash Requirements) with
Yes in the Update field.

AP160 creates a payment tape for invoices assigned payment codes defined for
tape record output. The cash code and payment code combination assigned to the
invoices determine the cash payment format and remittance options. Cash codes,
payment codes, and cash payment formats are defined in the Cash Ledger
application.

Select a process group if you want to process payments concurrently.This
allows you to balance the load. You can run the form multiple times. Enter a
different file name on the File Name tab to avoid overwriting the first file.

Run AP160 for each cash code processed by AP150 (Cash Requirements). Along
with creating a payment tape, AP160 creates a message report indicating the
completion status of the form. You must run AP170 (Payment Closing) to close
the payment cycle before you can run AP150 again.

**Processing Effect
Each time you create a payment tape, the application assigns a serial number
to the tape. If you need to recreate a payment tape, select Yes in the
Recreate Tape field and type the serial number of the tape you want to
recreate.

**Troubleshooting
If AP160 does not create a payment tape, review the cash payment Transaction
Code output options and Cash Payment Format options defined in Cash Ledger.
