    The Post Payment Lot dialog box appears.

  1. Specify when and in which mode the postings are to be made.

    In the case of larger payment lots, you should execute the postings in the background; otherwise it is essential that the dialog box in which you are working is blocked for the duration of the postings.

  1. Choose Continue .

    The system issues a message when the posting run is completed.

  1. Now check the status of the payment lot.

Result

The status of the payment lot indicates which activities you now have to carry out:

  • Postings made : All payments were posted. No clarification cases have arisen. The reconciliation key for postings to the general ledger was closed, meaning that data can be transferred to the general ledger.

  • Postings made, postprocessing necessary: Certain items require clarification. Postprocessing is necessary either because one or more payments were posted to a clarification account or because the system was unable to make a posting due to incomplete settings in Customizing. These payments are automatically included in the clarification worklist. For more information, see Postprocessing Clarification Cases .
