5282 - A/P Vendor Misc Fees Defaults Maintenance

The A/P miscellaneous fees process was created to charge certain vendors various fees on the vendor’s invoices to BWI. The fees are processed as deductions from the amount the vendor charges BWI on an invoice.

Before a vendor can be charged a fee on their invoices, the miscellance fees have to be setup, and the appropriate fees assigned to the necessary vendors.

The Maintenance screen is used to set up valid miscellaneious invoice fee types. These are the fee types that can be assigned to an A/P vendor to deduct from vendor invoices. A miscellaneous fee must be set up in the 5282 option before that fee type can be assigned to a vendor.

When option 5282 is taken the initial maintenance screen displays with the current fee types listed.

To add an new miscellaneous fee, enter a ‘1’ in the option field for the Blank fee type line, then enter the required data.

A description of the fee type is required. A valid General Ledger account number to charge is also required.

The default General Ledger company and Cost Center to charge can also be entered, but are not required. If no Company or Cost Center are entered, the Company and Cost Center that the invoice is charged will be used at invoice creation time. Enter the new Fee information and press ENTER to save.

To change the desciption or General Ledger information for an existing Fee type, enter a ‘2’ in the option field on the line for the fee type to change.

Any of the information on the line can be changed, or added. Enter the data to be changed and press ENTER to save the changes.

When all the required additions or changes are made, press F3 to exit the maintenance program and return to the menu.
