When you make a payment to a vendor, you post the payment in a payment journal. You can either import a bank statement file use the Suggest Vendor Payments batch job in the payment journal to find payments that are due. You can also use the Vendor - Summary Aging report to get an overview of payments that are due.
When the payments are posted, export them to a bank file for upload to your electronic bank site for processing. For more information, see Make Payments with Bank Data Conversion Service or SEPA Credit Transfer.

| The generic version of Microsoft Dynamics NAV supports the SEPA Credit Transfer format. In your country/region, other formats for electronic payments may be available. To enable export of a bank file formats that are not supported by the generic or local versions of Microsoft Dynamics NAV, you can use the Date Exchange Framework. For more information, see How to: Enable Import/Export of Bank or Payroll Files Using the Data Exchange Framework. |
