Additional Log In The Automatic Payment Program

What is the additional log in the AP payment program and how can it be used for troubleshooting?

---

Run Date: The run date is used for identifying the parameters. It is the date on which the program is to be carried out as planned. However, a program run at an earlier or later date is also possible.

Identification: You can use the additional identification to distinguish between several runs with the same reconciliation key date. You can freely define the identification.

The additional log is an important setting when performing a payment run. The amount of information stored in the log can be selected (see below for example only).

If there are any errors with the payments run, due to either missing or incorrect master data settings, negative balances due to credit memo’s etc., the system will report these in the additional log.

Support position interviews often ask this question as a way of determining if you know how to troubleshoot day to day Accounts Payable operations.
