AR00.1 - Customer Group

Use AR00.1 (Customer Group) to define and maintain customer groups. A
customer group identifies a group of customers shared by one or more accounts
receivable companies. The ability to share customers across companies greatly
reduces system setup time.

When you define a customer group, you select customer numbering options and
define cross-company aging and currency defaults. The aging options you define
for the customer group default on company records unless you override them at
the company level.

Choose the EFT Calendar button to define calendar options for processing
electronic funds transfers (EFTs).

After you define customer groups, use AR01.1 (Company) to define accounts
receivable companies.

AR00.2 - EFT Calendar

Use the EFT Calendar subform to define EFT calendar processing options. This
allows you to link EFT processing to a predefined calendar. Through the
environmental calendar definition program you can define a calendar with
marked days (typically  business days) and unmarked days (weekends/holidays).
The EFT calendar is assigned to the customer group record.

This calendar is used to select open items for EFT processing. For example, if
the EFT request was for the next business day, 1 would be entered in the Due
Days field, and a Due Days Type of M would be selected.

If you are using a national account structure, add the calendar to the
national account company to process EFT transactions across the national
account company/customer structure.

Note: The EFT processing programs use the system date as the default date, if
an override date is not entered.
