Payment

In the Payment menu it is possible for the administrators to create and view payment files and send files to Visma.net AutoPay providing Visma.net AutoPay is set up and activated.

Payment files can be used in the following scenarios:

  • When Autopay workflow is used: Approved claims can be sent to Visma.net AutoPay for payment.
  • When Banking and Bookkeeping workflow is used in Finland: Approved claims can be transferred to a payment file, in order to manually upload it in a banking and/or bookkeeping system.

Generate payment files

Under Generate payment files it is possible to pay out claim to the employees’ bank accounts. When opening the page the screen shows an overview of available claims in a grid.

Default display will be all approved claims for all employees within a default date range (last 3 months).

All approved claims that are shown are pre-selected, but it is possible to deselect the claims that are not needed. The default company IBAN is preselected and the payment date is set to today’s date. It is not possible to select claims where the bank account is missing on the employee.

Send to Visma.net AutoPay

When using AutoPay the selected claims are sent to Visma.net AutoPay when clicking the button Send to AutoPay. This button will not be available if the company IBAN is missing.

A pop-up is then displayed with information about how many claims that are selected, the payment date, the company IBAN and the total amount. The user can then select to send the claim for payment to Visma.net AutoPay or cancel.

The claims will then be processed by the user in Visma.net AutoPay. When the file has been paid in Visma.net AutoPay, the selected claims will be removed from this list and available under the menu Payment files.

Download payment file

When using the workflow Banking and Bookkeeping it is possible to download the selected claims by clicking the button Download payment file. This button will not be available if the company IBAN is missing.

A pop-up is then displayed with information about how many claims that are selected, the payment date, the company IBAN and the total amount. The user can then click Download to download a payment file in XML format or click Cancel. Once the file is downloaded, the selected claims will be removed from this list and available under the menu Payment files.
