Reckon Accounts Hosted:  Suppliers-Pay Bills - Payment Method> How can I add a Payment Method description type.
Eg Bpay or EFT  - note I do not want this linked to any online banking etc, simply a descriptor.
Thank you

    Hi
    If you go to Lists - Customer and Supplier Profile Lists - Payment Method List - you can add a new one in there.

    Good luck :)

    Hi Toni, This doesn't filter through to pay bills. It is a set list. Kind regards, Sally Sally@samsolutions.com.au

    I am also trying to set this up to work for my company. I can change/ edit/ add payment methods but these are not consistent through the whole system and very hard to raise reports on.

    I started a new bank account so I can track cash only because otherwise if only recognises it as 'Cheque' type even thought you select 'Cash'.

    Is it possible to change the 'Payment Type'? In some areas of Reckon you can choose 'Bank Online' as  your 'Payment Type' however you cannot allocate 'Payment Methods' such as direct debit and B Pay labels to the 'Bank online' type. 

    Thanks

    Hi Jayne

    To best help you, which Reports are you referring to?

    In my company file (using Reckon Accounts premier 2015)  in the 'payment method' list, I have created a 'cash' 'payment method' that is a cash payment type, I have edited 'Cheque' to be 'Cheque' payment type,
    and created 'Direct Credit' & 'Direct Debit' and they are marked as 'other' payment type.

    These are all accessible by 'receive payments' & 'pay bills'  & 'Enter Sales Receipt' and in 'write chq' I always choose 'Cash/Cheque' & write in the chq no. field I put in what type of payment method eg DD or EFT. In  Employee set up under 'payroll & compensation info' 'pay method' has 'cash & Cheque (& in my case 'Bank online')

    In Reckon Accounts 'Bank Online' as a payment type is a system management tool, for those who want to create a file to upload to their banks. (turned on in edit the details of each bank account set up in your COA)

    hope this clears/answers you question.

    Cheers

    Angie, how did you change the 'Type'? There is a difference between 'Payment Method' (first column) and 'Payment Type' (2nd Column) in this system. Changing the 'method' is fine but allocating it to the right 'type' I cannot find how to change or edit this. 

    In re-reading your comment - I have done exactly this which in I think actually a default mostly and then I have added BPay and a few others. Cash and Cheque should just be Cash and Cheque as this is how Reckon distinguishes them anyway.  

    however I do not want 'Other' to be the 'type' as there are other payment methods that fall under the 'Other' category that are not the same type of payments. 

    I.e. EFT or DirDeb methods should be 'online banking' or actually listed at EFT and DirDeb Types not 'Other'. I have other methods such as Gift Certificate which is an Other which put them in the 'other' category all together which is incorrect. 

    Thanks
    Jayne

    Unfortunately Jayne it is not possible to add any more 'payment types' in Reckon Accounts what you see is what you get. Only 'Payment methods' are editable & able to have more listed.

    Thanks Angie I thought this was probably the case but worth asking the question. 

    Thank you for your assistance.
