Once you have selected the bills of exchange for planning and allocated the individual banks at the start of each day, you then usually inform the banks how much is to be planned.
Your credit standing at the banks and the weighted average of the remaining life on the bills of exchange has an effect on these activities.
Depending on the remaining term, it is feasible that a short-term bill of exchange is rejected by a bank, while a bill with a longer term is accepted.
The planned amounts function enables you to create the data necessary for this procedure.
To do this, proceed as follows:
You reach the overview screen Planned Amounts for Bill/Exch.Presentation.
– Bill of exchange usage code (U)
Here you enter the bill of exchange usage code so that amounts that were planned for discounting are not used for collection.
– Remaining term (RT)
You use this field to specify that the planned amount can only be used for bills of exchange with a remaining term greater than or equal to the minimum maturity you enter here.
– Planned amounts
Planned amounts are amounts that are available for the presentation of bills of exchange according to the entries specified in this table.
