If your organization is using the Open Items and/or Cash Based Accounting method, you must assign a Receipting Priority (on the Charge Fee Definition window) to each fee code before you can apply payments to fee balances in priority order.
Then, when receipting a payment in priority order, payments are applied to fee codes starting with the lowest numbered receipting priority and ending with the highest numbered. Applying the payments in priority order is one of three methods of distributing the payment when receipting. For this method of receipting, specify Priority Distribution in Receipt Options (A/R configuration window).

The other two methods of distributing the payment when receipting are proportional distribution and manual entry. |
