Introduction

Some payments types require an additional activity to be executed upon completion of the payment.

For instance a payment with a check might require the recording of the check number and the printing of the check.

Overall the execution process is a definition of the activity/ies that the system or the user has to execute to get that a payment is finally recorded as:

  • made/withdrawn from the financial account
  • or received/deposited in the financial account.

Process

The execution process window lists the available execution processes.

Openbravo delivers by default below described execution processes:

  • Simple Execution Process - this process runs a system activity which changes the payment status from "Awaiting Execution" to "Payment Received"/"Payment Made" (or "Deposited not Cleared"/"Withdrawn not Cleared")
  • Print Check simple process - this process opens a window which allows the user to enter a check number while processing the payment.
  • Leave as Credit - this process is just use Return Materials functionality as it allows to change a negative payment in/out into a positive credit for the business partner (customer/vendor).

The payments that require a separate activity to be executed need to be configured to get that working, that implies the selection of the "Automatic" option in the field "Execution Process",
therefore an execution process of the ones listed above can be selected while configuring the payment method.

Parameter

The parameter tab allows to configure the additional activity to execute upon completion of a payment. For instance to record a check number.

As shown in the image above the "Print Check Simple Process" has one parameter named "Check Number".
That parameter is an "In" "Parameter Type" which "Input Type" is "Text".

Above configuration means that the check number needs to be enter as a text by the user.

An "In" parameter type can also be a checkbox, therefore instead of entering a text the user needs to select a checkbox or not.
It is also possible to define whether the default value of the checkbox is going to be "Yes" or "No".

Besides the parameter types can also be a "Constant", therefore the "Default Text Value" of the constant can be specified.

The value register for any of the above defined parameter's types is saved in the Parameters tab of the corresponding payment run.



Full list of Execution Process window fields and their descriptions is available in the Execution Process Screen Reference.
