Specifies the priority of the application rule in relation to other application rules that are defined as lines in the Payment Application Rules window. 1 represents the highest priority.

If two payment application rules can be used to automatically apply a payment, then the number in the Priority field determines which rule is used.

In the Payment Application Rules window, you choose to what degrees you want specific data on a payment reconciliation journal line to match with data on one or more open entries before the related payment is automatically applied to the open entries. The quality of each automatic application according to application rules is shown as a value of Low to High in the Match Confidence field in the Payment Reconciliation Journal window. For more information, see How to: Set Up Rules for Automatic Application of Payments.
