Negative Discount Amounts on Payment Transactions

Datafile records the payment and payment discount values as positive values on update of the payment to the ledger. When bringing in payment transactions from another system, however, the discount may be recorded as a negative value. This new feature allows this negative value to be converted and processed as a positive value on update to the ledger.


Discount Value as Negative in Input Trans – set where the payment discount value recorded on the import file for payment transactions is a negative value and should be imported to Datafile as a positive value (and for payment adjustments it’s a positive value and needs to be imported to Datafile as a negative value)
