Payment Request
How to use Payment Request in Banking & Payments: access, working steps, fields, related records and troubleshooting.
Purpose and access
Record receipts, payments and transfers with the correct party, accounts, currency and allocation. Reconcile bank activity with ERP entries. A payment record is not a bank transfer instruction unless a separately configured integration performs that action.
This page is a record page in Finance & Accounting → Banking & Payments. Use the link above to open the configured destination; permissions are checked by the destination service.
Before you start
Prepare the required information: Payment Request Type, Series, Amount.
Confirm the company, party, dates, units and source references that apply. Select existing links carefully and check for an existing record before creating a duplicate.
Working steps
- Open Payment Request from Finance & Accounting → Banking & Payments, or use ERP Search.
- Filter the list and open the relevant record. To add a record, use Add/New when your role provides that action.
- Complete the editable fields described below. Required fields and validation conditions must be satisfied; read-only values are set by the system or their source records.
- Add the required child rows. Review each row’s identifiers, linked records and values, using the child-table field reference below.
- Save the record and address validation messages. Reload and verify the saved values and relationships.
- When the draft is complete and you are authorized, submit it through the available approval process. Submission can create operational or accounting effects. Use the permitted cancellation/amendment process for later corrections.

Troubleshooting
- Not permitted: verify the account, role and source-document permission. Do not share an administrator login.
- Missing record or address: inspect the relevant Link or Dynamic Link fields; a matching title alone does not establish a relationship.
- Cannot save or change status: review required fields, read-only values, document status and the configured approval transition.
- Unexpected report or portal result: review company/date filters, source-document submission and the approved party or Employee link.
