accounts

reduces system setup time.

and define cross-company aging and currency defaults. The aging options you
define for the customer group default to company records unless you override
them at the company level.

AR00.2 - EFT Calendar


Use EFT Calendar (AR00.2) to define EFT calendar processing options.
You can link EFT processing to a predefined calendar. Through the
environmental
calendar definition program you can define a calendar with marked days
(typically
business days) and unmarked days (weekends/holidays). The EFT calendar is
assigned to the customer group record.
Use this calendar to select open items for EFT processing. For example,
if the EFT request is for the next business day, enter 1 in the Due Days
field,
and select M for a Due Days Type.


**More Information

If you are using a national account structure, add the calendar to the
national account company to process EFT transactions across the national
account
company/customer structure.


NOTE  Unless you enter an override date, the EFT processing programs
use the system date as the default date.
