You must routinely apply incoming and outgoing payments made on your electronic bank site to the related business documents in Microsoft Dynamics NAV and then post the payments to customer, vendor, general ledger, and bank ledger entries to settle your payables and receivables accounts. You can use an automatic application function and other features in the General Journal window to quickly process payments based on bank statements that are imported from your electric bank site.

| If you do not process customer payments based on imported bank statements, or you do not need automatic application, you can perform the same tasks manually in the Payment Registration window. In this window you can use a simple overview of payments made, lump-sum posting, and other functions to find and create related sales documents. For more information, see How to: Process Payments Manually. |
